What's this for?
This tutorial will help you create a live list of all active jobs sorted by due date order.
What you should know
The live boards segment your jobs to open jobs by status. You may want a more generic report. You can build your own live lists that suit your requirements.
The live boards show open documents. When you archive a document, it becomes closed, and we remove it from the board. If you are not familiar with archiving, read this article to learn more.
