The My Assigned inbox is a navigation menu drop-down list that shows records you need to work on. Each item in the list links to a saved search run on the table listed in parentheses. My Assigned makes it easy to jump directly into your assignments, without switching nav bar groupings and without switching saved searches.

For example, click My Assigned Contract Approvals (Approvals) to find all contract approval records assigned to you in the Approvals table.

The All My Assigned Records search runs the My Assigned searches for all available tables and shows only those that have at least one record. You can also customize My Assigned searches to determine which records appear for each search, and add other searches to the My Assigned section. 

Showing Tables in My Assigned
