Using the Business License Worklist

The business license worklist provides a central location for performing license-related activities. Separate tabs list unassigned applications, applications that are assigned to the current user, and activities and workflow tasks that are assigned to them.

Access the worklist by clicking the Business License Worklist tile on the agency springboard.

Initially, all tabs to which you have access appear. Click a tab to see the applications or activities that meet the tab filter criteria and to access the relevant actions. When you click a tab other than the one that is initially selected, only the newly selected tab (and its subtabs, if any) are visible. Similarly, when you select a subtab, only that subtab is visible. Click the Back icon next to the Search icon to return to the previous view.

Each tab provides access to relevant actions. Performing actions from the worklist is equivalent to performing the same tasks from the Activity Tracking page in the application details.

The business license worklist has the following tabs:
