Checklists

Managing and using personal checklists

The My Checklists section is a dedicated area for maintaining personal checklists.

Note: Access to all tools in this section is available to any user logged into the corporate portal.

To navigate to the My Checklists workspace, go to the system menu of the corporate portal and select TasksMy Checklists, or in the upper right corner of the corporate portal, click on the user icon (your icon on the corporate portal), then select My Checklists.

All user checklists are displayed in the workspace of the section as a list in the order set by the user (manual sorting, i.e., the user has the ability to arbitrarily change the order of checklists in the list).

How to Create an Effective Checklist

  1. Define the goal ("What do I want to achieve?").
  2. Break it down into steps (from 3 to 15 items — more can be overwhelming).
  3. Avoid deep nesting of sub-items (no more than 2 levels; any "flat" text is easier to perceive, and expanding sub-items takes additional time).
  4. Formulate clearly ("Call the client" is better than "Contact").
  5. Add context (if needed: time, place, resources).
  6. Test on one task, adjust the structure.
  7. Regularly review (remove outdated items, add new ones).

Toolbar of the Section

The My Checklists section has an intuitive toolbar that allows for efficient management of the checklist lifecycle.
