Ability to see number of records present on Dashboard/My Outstanding Work

[Anonymous]

Dashboard is a great place to start in FLC but with an ever growing list of outstanding items, it would be great if FLC can add a feature to display a count of records in the dashboard/my outstanding work. it helps the users immensely in not having to scroll thru the list but to glance at the count and act accordingly.

Good idea. If it is a performance hit to do this with a very big list because you have not evaluated it fully, I would still be happy to see e.g. ">20" if the number is "large".

It is a good visual indicator to users when they have completed a task from the middle of the list, and refreshed. It's not always easy to see that your task has disappeared. But if the number has gone down by 1, that's reassuring.

@Anonymous @philipfrench , to clarify, where would you suggest the indication to appear? In the section's title bar? Somewhere else?

Hi - in the section header (like with tabs) or, wherever is easiest.

To be honest, I'd actually prefer ability to filter workspaces in the list, even more than a number indicator.

The performance of MoW has improved a lot since this Idea was created. Probably there are other usability improvements to MoW section on the dashboard that are more relevant now. As an admin, I would very much like to know where the bulk of the time taken to refresh MoW is going (which condition script? which workspace?) so I can know where to focus my implementation improvements.

Fred,
In the section title bar would be ideal. Thanks
