The Roles list contains different types of users. The default types are:

User
: Potential owners of a task, who can claim and complete a task or assign it to another user.
Administrator
: Same as potential owners, but can also see a list of all actual owners.
Stakeholder
: Same as administrator.
Initiator
: Same as user, but can skip a task if it was defined as "can be skipped."

By default, all Role types are shown. Your list may contain roles defined for your enterprise.

Tasks are automatically organized into three groups:

Notifications
: There is no action required other than to read and remove the notification.
Open Tasks:
Includes unclaimed and claimed tasks. Claimed tasks are those that you selected to work on.
Closed Tasks
: Includes completed, exited, obsolete, and error tasks.

The Show list allows you to select a group of tasks to display. By default, you can display All, Claimed, or Unclaimed tasks. Your list may contain custom selections.
