Configuring Work Baskets List

Use the Work Baskets List configuration to define the content that is shown in the widget, and how this content is displayed and refreshed.

About this task

To configure this widget, open the widget menu, and select Edit settings. If this option is not available, either you are not authorized to configure the widget, or you are not in the edit mode of the widget. To switch to the edit mode, click Edit Page. You can configure the following aspects of this widget:
  • The content that is shown in the widget
  • How the content is displayed and refreshed

Configuring the content

Use the Content tab to select which work basket lists and properties the user can view. Initially the All work baskets list is selected as the default.

Procedure
  1. Change the lists that the user sees.
    To make more lists available to the widget user, change the default list, or to make available lists unavailable, click Select work basket lists. In the window that opens, you can perform the following actions:
    • Select a list to add
    • Clear a selected work basket list
    • Change the default list for this widget
  2. Configure which properties are displayed in a particular work basket.

    To do this, select the list, then select the properties that you want the widget to display, and clear any properties that you do not want displayed. To change the order in which the information is displayed in the widget, select a property, then click one of the arrows to move the property up or down in the list.When the content of the widget is displayed as a list, the first property in the list becomes the title of the entries in the list.

    When the contents of the widget are displayed as a table, you can group properties. Click the Group by check boxes for the properties that you want to group. To save the group as the default, click Set as default group. To disable grouping, uncheck the grouping properties that are selected for grouping.

Configuring how the list is displayed

Use the Display tab to select whether to display the work baskets as a table or a list, and to configure the refresh behavior of the widget.

Procedure
  1. On the Display tab, select Layout to configure how the work baskets list is displayed. You can select one of the following layout styles:
    • Table displays the work baskets as a table, with one work basket per row, and one column for each displayed property. Then choose a navigation style.
      • Fit to view (Multiple pages) provides a pagination bar at the bottom of the table.
      • View all (Scroll bar) provides a vertical scroll-bar for the list. For this option, you can also specify how many list items are displayed, the default value is 100.
    • List displays the work baskets in a list. You can select whether the information property labels are displayed. The default is that the labels are not shown, which minimizes the screen space used to display the work baskets in the widget. You can also change the number of work baskets that are displayed, which has a default value of 100.
  2. On the Display tab, select the Refresh tab. Depending on the wiring between the widgets, the contents of one widget might also be refreshed as a result of an action in another widget. You can select one of the following options:
    • Manually if the widget user should select Refresh from the widget menu to refresh the contents of the widget.
    • Automatically if the widget content should be refreshed automatically. You must specify the refresh interval in minutes, or use the default interval of one minute. If there is a large number of users, avoid using a short automated refresh interval because of the extra load that it causes on the backend-systems.
