Tasks provide quick access to documents in GlobalAction workflows that are awaiting user interaction. You can open individual documents from the list of documents awaiting action or select multiple documents and use the Actions menu to select an available action from the list to apply to all selected documents.

  2. Favorites ( star.png ) - Favorites give you one click access to any searches to which you are secured. You can favorite as many searches as you want and they are added to the Favorites pane in the Navigation panel. Favorites gives you the flexibility to name your favorited search, decide if the search prompt will appear when clicked, and the ability to keep the last set of search criteria. You can do all of this and still have access to the original search within the Archive Ellipsis menu.
