Collaboration work management dashboard system

The patent US12073363B2 describes a system and method for providing a dashboard within a collaboration environment. The system utilizes one or more physical computer processors that manage environment state information, which includes work unit records for tasks assigned to users. Notably, the system identifies a set of work units associated with a user, even if that user is not directly assigned to those tasks. This allows the dashboard to present relevant work information, such as titles, statuses, and user details, tailored to the user's involvement. The dashboard is designed to enhance user interaction by including selectable elements for contacting other users and features like dropdown buttons for accessing subunits of work.
Additionally, the patent outlines that the association between users and work units can be determined based on the users' levels of responsibility. The dashboard also incorporates visual indicators, such as colored status indicators, to represent the statuses of work units. The system is capable of monitoring user interactions with the work units and generating metrics to characterize these interactions. Furthermore, it allows for the presentation of multiple dashboards, each displaying different sets of work information associated with the user, thereby facilitating a comprehensive view of the collaboration environment.
