Edit common settings from the Unified Task List portlet.
- Log in to WebSphere® Portal Express® with
administrative access to the Unified Task List portlet.
- Access the Unified Task List configuration
view and select Common Settings, which is in the navigation pane.
The Common Settings window opens.
- Provide values for the following fields to configure the
common settings:
- Show Menu
- Select this check box to display the filter menu in the Unified Task List. The filter menu
displays a list of filters that segregate tasks from multiple back-end
systems.
- Enable Person Card Integration
- Select this check box to show user details when hovering over
the owner or originator in a task list. The Unified Task List uses the people-awareness
features in WebSphere Portal Express to
retrieve the user details from the corresponding profile pages. To
show user awareness of the owner or originator in a task list, you
must configure a IBM® Sametime®
server to interact with the WebSphere Portal Express Server.
- Use Dynamic Cache
- Select this check box to store and retrieve tasks in the WebSphere Application
Server dynamic cache
service. When using the WebSphere Application
Server
dynamic cache service, the task dispatcher stores and retrieves tasks
in the cache for faster task loading.
- Enable Claim-Release of Tasks
- Select this check box to let users perform claim and release operations
on tasks. Users perform claim and release operations in the Unified Task List through the use
of the Claim and Release buttons in the user interface. When users
select a task and click Claim, they take ownership
of the task and remove the task from the list of shared tasks. When
users select a task and click Release, they
no longer claim ownership of the task. The task then returns to the
list of shared tasks. Users can also perform claim and release operations
through the drag-and-drop menu that is displayed in the user interface.
- Dynamic Page Extension Node UID
- This field is required if you have task handlers that use dynamic
pages for task completion. Specify the ID for the dynamic page extension
node in WebSphere Portal Express. Leave
the default value in this field if you do not have task handlers that
use dynamic pages.
- Click Save and Back to
return to the main portlet page.
