Managing a task

The My Tasks To Do pane displays all tasks assigned to the currently logged in user. The Type column indicates the reason the task has been assigned.

The actions available to perform on the selected task vary depending on the type of task being managed. For example:

When content is assigned to a user as part of the editorial review process, a Review task is created. The actions available for a Review task are Approve and Reject.
When content submitted for review is approved, an Approved task is created and assigned to the user who initiated the review workflow. The action available on an Approved task is Task Done.
When content submitted for review is rejected, a Rejected task is created and assigned to the user who initiated the review workflow. The actions available on a Rejected task are Abort Review and Resubmit for Review.
When content is successfully submitted to the staging environment and is awaiting a specified launch date, a Submission Pending task is assigned to the user who initiated the submission. The actions available for a Submission Pending task are Abort Submission and Submit Now.

When you process a task in the My Tasks To Do list, the task is added to the My Completed Tasks list, regardless of the type of task being managed.
