My Work List

The My Work List control is used to provide team members with a location from which they can view and access all of any work item to which they are currently assigned.

Overview

The My Work List widget is configured from the Module Designer. Select a module (or add a new one), then add a tab into which a My Work List can be added.

Wireup Options

When you add the My Work List widget to a layout pane, you cannot currently use the Widget Wireup to synchronize the My Work List with another widget.

The My Work List widget can perform the following actions:

Action Description
Wire_Refresh

The Wire_Refresh action allows a Widget Wireup to refresh the information that is available in a backlog or a list. When information changes on the widget that has been configured as the publisher (using the datachange event), updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber.

Wire_UpdateRow

The Wire_UpdateRow action allows a Widget Wireup to refresh the details of a single row in a backlog or list. When the details of a work item are updated on the widget that has been configured as the publisher (using the onsave event), updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber.

The My Work List widget can perform the following publish options:

Publish Option Description
/serena/grid/datachange

The datachange event allows a Widget Wireup to listen for changes to any work item in a backlog. When changes are detected on the widget that has been configured as the publisher, updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber (using the Wire_Refresh action).

/serena/grid/rowselectchange

The rowselectchange event allows a Widget Wireup to listen for when changes have been made to a specific row in a backlog. When changes are detected on the widget that has been configured as the publisher, updates are then pushed to the widget that has been configured as the subscriber (using the Wire_Refresh action).
