Introduction
The My work page is your entry page to view and access tasks and other assets that are assigned to you. You can work on these assets or mark them as resolved. You can also view and access asset files that you downloaded to your computer, for example, to edit them in an external editor.
censhare allows to assign assets directly to a user, or to create tasks and assign these to a user:
If you assign an asset directly to a user, the asset displays on their My work page. If you also add a workflow, the progress shows according to the mapping of the workflow states.
Tasks provide enhanced planning and tracking features. Tasks are assets themselves. If you work with tasks, you can assign a user and add related content (any asset type) to a task. As with any other asset, you can add a workflow and a user. You can order tasks by defining predecessor and successor tasks. Multiple tasks can be part of a single project that is planned in the Project editor.
Tasks tab
The table on the Tasks tab shows assets and tasks that are assigned to you personally, or to a group of which you are a member. The table is sorted chronologically: At the top, overdue assets and tasks display. Next, assets and tasks with an upcoming deadline display. At the bottom, assets and tasks without a deadline display.
Each table row shows an asset or task. The table columns show the following details:
Related content | Predecessor tasks | Completion | Deadline | Assigned to | Working time | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Only for tasks: Shows assets that are assigned to a task | Only for tasks: Shows tasks if the current task is planned in a project | Shows a progress bar of the completion. | Shows the manual deadline for tasks and assets | Can be you, or a group of which you are a member | Only for tasks: Shows the planned time to work on a task. |
You can filter the assets and tasks that display:
Filter by type: Select to display only tasks and their related assets, or other assets that are assigned to you or to your groups.
Filter by assigned user/group: Select to display only assets that are assigned to you personally, or assets that are assigned to a user group to which you belong.
Filter by status: This filter only works with tasks with dependencies (successor and predecessor tasks). Select Current to display only parent tasks without their successor tasks. Select Upcoming to display only the child tasks (successor tasks) of current tasks.
Filter by completion state: Select whether to display only assets that are not yet completed, or assets that are completed.
