Definition of Queries
You define the layout of a list of worklists and make default settings for selection criteria in a query.
On the one hand, administrators can create queries centrally in the back-end system and make them available to all users. With these default queries (also known as admin queries), little effort is required to make worklists with flexible selection and a specific layout available to a number of users. For example, you can thus define queries with variable time periods or partners.
On the other hand, each user can define user-specific queries in the worklist using the New Worklist
pushbutton.
Activities
