Managing My Tasks template

The Managing My Tasks template creates a space for monitoring your work and creating and performing tasks.

The Managing My Tasks template combines widgets from WebSphere® Process Server and WebSphere Business Monitor to create a space for users who are responsible for performing tasks that have been assigned to them. These users might also be permitted to claim unassigned tasks and work on them. One person on a team can create the space and share it so that all members of the team use the same space. However, even though the users are sharing the same space, the information displayed to each individual is unique to that individual.

With a space based on the Managing My Tasks template, you can also observe the current state of the business and receive alerts when certain business events occur. The ability to monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) of the business and receive alerts is what distinguishes spaces that are created from the Managing My Tasks template from the spaces created from the Managing Tasks and Workflow template.

The Managing My Tasks template creates a space with three pages: My Work, Create Tasks, and Viewers. The My Work page is where you work on your assigned tasks. For example, you can select to edit a task in the My Tasks widget or the Available Tasks widget and then use the Task Information widget to work on that task. You can check the KPIs and Alerts widgets to monitor a business process.

The following table lists the widgets that are supplied for use in the My Work page.
