My Work: your daily view

My Work: your daily view

My Work is your personal landing page. It answers one question — what needs my attention today? — without you trawling boards or building filters.

Where: My Work in the main menu You need: nothing beyond your Tasks access

What needs your attention

The top of the page collects your open tickets into the four buckets that matter, so nothing slips:

  • Overdue — past their due date
  • Due today
  • Due this week
  • Blocked — stuck and flagged as such

If those are empty, you are up to date. That is the whole design: the page should be boring most days, and when it is not, the thing that changed is at the top.

My sprint progress

A live picture of your part of the active sprint: how complete your assigned work is, how many days remain, and your time position — estimate, logged and remaining across your open tasks.

If there is no active sprint for your projects, it says so rather than showing stale numbers.

💡 The time figures are only as good as your inputs. My Work will nudge you to set time estimates on tasks — do it, or "remaining" means nothing. See Estimates and logging time.

The rest of the page

  • Open task breakdown — your open tickets grouped, so you can see the shape of your workload
  • Recently assigned to you — what has just landed
  • Recently completed — what you have shipped, which is worth more than a feeling at review time

You can also create a ticket from here without going to the board.

What Happens Next

My Work is a reading surface, not a working one — it reflects ticket state rather than changing it:

  • Moving a ticket on the board removes it from your buckets here
  • Logging time updates your sprint position immediately
  • A ticket with no due date will never appear in the overdue or due buckets, whatever its state

Tips

  • Read it first thing, and act on the top bucket only. Overdue first, then due today. Working the page top-down is the whole value; skimming all four buckets and picking the interesting one is not.
  • Blocked is a signal to escalate, not to wait. A ticket sitting in Blocked for days is a conversation someone has not had.
  • Put due dates on work that matters. Undated tickets are invisible to every bucket here and to every automation built on overdue.
  • Use "recently completed" at review time. People systematically under-remember their own output; this is the record.

Troubleshooting / FAQ

Q: My sprint progress says "no active sprint" but we are mid-sprint. The sprint has not been moved to Active in the Sprint Manager — status is set by hand, not by the dates. Ask whoever runs your sprints. See Sprints.

Q: A ticket I finished still shows in my buckets. Its status has not moved to a done column. My Work reads ticket state; it does not guess.

Q: My remaining time looks wrong. Check the original estimate on those tickets. Without one there is nothing to subtract logged time from.
