CTMS Home Page

The CTMS Home Page provides access to user preferences and cross-project activities and displays system-wide information, active projects, and today's tasks for the current user. The projects are displayed on three tabs:

My Projects lists projects whose project type is Production.

My Test Projects lists projects whose project type is Test.

My Recent Projects lists projects whose project type is either Production or Test and displays in descending order based on the last time the user selected the project. The maximum number of projects to appear in this list is set in the Number of Recent Projects configuration variable under the Application configuration group. This tab will be hidden if the Number of Recent Projects per User Configuration variable is set to zero.

Users will be able to view the projects that are active and have a check in the Available to Users check box on the Project tab on the Administration module. System and Project users who have a check in the User can access all Projects check box on the Login module do not need explicit permission for each project; they have access to all projects.

The user can check the box to the left of the task to indicate that the task is complete or click the task to edit its information. Below the list of current tasks, a message will display to indicate the number of tasks that are due by the end of the current week not including those listed above the message. Adding and editing tasks is managed in the Project module.
