Using the Planner Worklist

The planner worklist provides a central location for performing planning-related activities. Separate tabs list unassigned applications, applications that are assigned to the current user, and activities that are assigned to the current user.

Access the worklist by clicking the Planner 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 planner worklist has the following tabs:

Planning Activities

Open activities that are associated with the current user’s assigned planning applications.

Activities are open if they are pending or in progress. Also, incomplete application review activities are open if they haven’t been resubmitted.

Update

See Working with Planning Application Activities.

Completing an activity removes it from this list, but does not affect the application status.

Activities are initially sorted by due date, with the soonest due date at the top of the list.

This tab has subtabs that further filter the activities by due date: Overdue, Due Today, Due This Week, and Due Next Week.

Subtab action menus have the same actions as the main tab. To return from a subtab to the main tab, click the Back icon next to the Search icon.

See the section Viewing Meetings on the Calendar in Working with Meetings.

Note: Grids are rendered in either a condensed or expanded format based on the FSM option selection made by the agency during implementation. On the planner worklist, each agency staff member can now personalize expanded grids to display information in a manner that suits their own requirement. See Personalizing Grid Displays.

Viewing Additional Application Information

Both the Task Management page and the worklists display icons in the left column to indicate additional information an agency user might need to view immediately regarding a transaction. For example, the icons can indicate whether conditions have been applied, if additional fees are required, and so on. Click the icon to view details.

If multiple conditions are applied, then the icon displays the most severe condition. Click the icon to see a list of all applicable conditions, including the condition name, severity, description, and when the condition was applied.
