MY JOBS

Introduction To My Jobs

The My Jobs blade is a list of all Jobs that have been assigned to a User or selected by a User. The status of a Job will be either system status ‘Active’ or a custom status.

There are three types of Jobs:

  • Regular jobs (represented in the list by a white circle)
  • Scheduled jobs (represented in the list by a circle and clock.)
  • Gigs (represented in the list by a dotted circle)

   A Gig is an often used, repeatable, typically simple process – for example, a leave request

The My Jobs list displays details for all Jobs that have Tasks allocated for the User to complete. This list can also be exported in PDF or Excel format.

These details include:

  • Job Name
