To Do List

This widget shows a "To Do" list for the currently logged in user. This list can include required learning, approvals, evaluations, assessments, performance reviews, or goals that need to be completed by a user in a timely fashion.

For clients using the full ELMS, the “To Do” list can be configured to be a combined list, showing items from both the GXP module and the LearnShare module. Alternatively, the "To Do" list can be for only LearnShare items.

Settings

On the Settings tab, you can make the following selections:

Show all courses (Required, Elective)
Select this checkbox to show all courses on the Development plan in the To Do List. The default is for only Required courses to be visible.

Select this checkbox for the list to include items that are awaiting manager approval. These could include pending course enrollments, pending goals, and 360 rater approvals.

This is only applicable for select systems.

Date Format

Picture 2

The default date format is to show the entire date in alpha-numeric format - for example: Monday, January 14, 2013. To change the date format, enter the desired date format into the box – for example, mm/dd/yyyy.

Timeboxes

The default is for all items to appear in a list format. Use the timeboxes to segregate the items by due date.

Below is a sample of the To Do list without timeboxes.

Picture 3

When timeboxes are added, the To Do List changes to a view of due-date categories such as Past Due, Due in 7 Days, etc.

Picture 6

To activate the timeboxes feature, select the Use Timeboxes checkbox, and then enter a text label for each timebox that you want to use.

If no text label is entered for a particular timebox, that timebox will not display in the To Do list. There is no default label. If no text labels are used but the Use Timeboxes box is checked, the To Do List will appear blank.

Picture 7

The possible timeboxes are:

Past Due
Enter a text label for this timebox. It will automatically include any resource that is not complete and has a completion deadline that has passed.
Current Requirements
Enter a text label and then enter a number in the Ranges box, which will determine what items fall into the Current Requirements box. Example: If you enter a 7, then any item with a completion deadline within the next seven days will be included.
Coming Due
Enter a text label and then a number in the Range box to determine what items should be displayed in this timebox. The range will begin at the day after the day listed for the current requirements box and go to the day entered in the range box. Example: If a 7 was entered in the Current Requirements box and a 30 was entered in the Coming Due box, this box will display items that have a completion deadline in the next 38 days.
Farther Out
Enter a text label and then a number in the Range box to determine what items should be displayed in this timebox. The range will begin at the day after the day listed for the coming due box and go to the day entered in the range box.
Non-Actionable Items box
Use the drop down box to determine which timebox the non-actionable items should appear in. If left at Default each non-actionable item will appear in the appropriate timebox based on the ranges set. If you would like for all non-actionable items to appear in the same timebox regardless of completion deadline, select the desired timebox from the dropdown list. Non-actionable items include items that are awaiting manager approval. And if you are a manager, you may also see Performance items that your direct reports need to complete.
Elective Items and Requirement Items with no due date box
Use the drop down box to determine which timebox elective items and required items with no due date should appear in. Elective items that have a due date will appear in the appropriate timebox based on the due date.
