View of individual modules
When selecting a module, e.g. "Tasks", an extra list of saved filters appears. For each module there are predefined standard filters. In the case of "Tasks" you'll find "My Open Tasks", "All Open Tasks" and "All Closed Tasks". You can also create custom views. After that you'll always see those automatically within the selection (here: "Custom View"). The order of the filter options can also be changed. To find out how to do that, please have a look at: Working with views / filters.
