On My Plate

Each activity contains a field that has a fork and knife icon. This is the "on my plate" field. Click on the fork and knife to put an activity on your plate. The activities on your plate are the things that you want to work on today.

This feature is designed to help you focus on the things you really need to get done. You can put as much or as little on your plate as you like, but once an activity is on your plate it will remain there until you complete it, snooze it, or take it off your plate.

To really take advantage of the On My Plate feature, click on the "On My Plate" Activity List filter, in the Activity Lists viewlet. Your activity outline will be refreshed to display only those activities that you have on your plate. This allows you to clear the clutter and focus on the things you need to get done today.

All the activities that you put on your plate will be displayed in bold font so that they stand out more. Furthermore, if you collapse Accomplice to display only the dashboard, all of the activities on your plate will be displayed in your On My Plate Viewlet, in order to remind you that they need to be done.

The On My Plate field is not common, meaning that when you are sharing an activity with a team of people, changes that you make to the On My Plate will not overwrite your team members' setting. This way, everyone on the team can decide whether or not to put the activity on their plate.
