Changed priority display of Requests and Work Orders in the list

Requests and Work Orders are sorted into seven categories in the list. As of version 3.0.167, the criteria for sorting into these categories have been adjusted as follows:

  • My drafts – drafts created by the logged-in assignee
  • Unassigned – requests that are assigned to one of the logged-in assignee’s groups
  • My awaiting response – requests that are assigned to the logged-in assignee and are awaiting a response
  • My overdue – requests assigned to the logged-in assignee where no response is awaited and the completion deadline has been exceeded
  • My to resolve – requests assigned to the logged-in assignee that are not awaiting a response and are not overdue
  • Other – other requests that do not directly concern the logged-in assignee but that they have access to. This also includes all closed requests and requests of other assignees from their own group
  • My awaiting approval – requests assigned to the logged-in assignee’s assignee group. These may also be requests in which the logged-in assignee is listed and that are at the same time in the Waiting for approval status.
