Work with actions

An action is an activity that has been identified as contributing to the understanding or resolution of a topic.

Examples of activities that you may track with actions include:

• Performing research such as literature searches.
• Scheduling project meetings or milestones.
• Documenting follow-up work.

Like topics, actions store information in a structured set of fields, and are given workflow states to track their progress from creation to completion. An action can be assigned to the same user that is currently assigned to the topic or to a different user.

After selecting the Actions tab from the Topic Management page, click an action's Row Action menu (), then click View to view all of the information on the View Action page.
