My Open Tasks by Creation Date Bar Chart
The ‘My Open Tasks by Creation Date’ bar chart, located below the quick-access buttons, displays your open tasks by the creation date:
• The ‘My Open Tasks by Creation Date’ bar chart shows the count of the total number of open tasks, included in parentheses next to the title.
• Different horizontal bars depict the corresponding count of your open tasks based on the legend items available out-of-the-box in the bar chart, for example, 1 to 3 Months, 3 to 6 Months, and so on.
The count is displayed on the right of the corresponding bar. For example, if you have 10 open tasks that are open from 6 to 12 months, then count 10 is displayed on the right of the associated bar.
You can also hover a pointer over a bar in the bar chart to see the corresponding information.
• The bar chart always displays your open tasks irrespective of the view that you select in the My Tasks table.
• The size that is set for a table in the > preference does not affect the count of the open tasks displayed in the bar chart.
• When you reassign one or more tasks from the My Tasks table to another user, the count is instantly updated on the associated bar in the bar chart.
• If you do not have any tasks in the My Tasks table, the bar chart is not displayed, and the count is not listed in the title.
