Appendix J. Group Project Views

These are default views of a group's projects and activities from the Kavi Demo Site. Group-centric views on your website are most likely to be installed on a Kavi® Groups tab accessible from the Group Home page. The view will be tailored to fit your organization's requirements.

Views displayed to group members may be more detailed than views displayed to the public or general membership, such as the examples shown in the Concepts document Organization-Wide Project Views. The full details of projects in proposal or draft development states are usually included in group views, whereas projects or certain project details may be withheld from views displayed to the public until the project is ready for public review.

Group Projects Listing

This default Projects Listing view is usually displayed on a tab available on the Group Home page of a group associated with the project, such as the Owning Group or Consensus Body. It provides a quick overview of all the group's projects, plus links to view project details or group activities.

Figure J.1. Group Projects List Example

A screenshot of
	    http://sdo.demos.kavi.com/kst/member/group_projects?gid=17. This view presents project information as a table with one project per row. The columns shown here are Project Name, Project Type, Project State, Last
	    Recorded Activity and Next Scheduled Activity. Each of
	    these column
	    headings can be clicked to change the sort order. The last
	    column in the table, Action, contains the View Details
	    link that can be clicked for
	    more information on a specific project. At the top of the form, a View Group
	    Activities button leads to another default view, described
	    in the next section. Below this button are search fields
	    where the user can select Project Type and/or Project State, then click
	    the Search button to narrow the displayed results. The
	    display can also be customized through the use of the 'Results per page' option.

This view provides a snapshot of current group projects by listing the project name, Project Type, Project State, Last Recorded Activity and Next Scheduled Activity. The viewer can click the View Details link in the Action column for more information on that project, or click the View Group Activities button to see all scheduled activities for all the group's projects. Since the Projects Listing could be long, especially for the top-level Consensus Body, the user can customize the view through the use of search filters or the 'Results per page' option, and column headings can be clicked to sort on different columns as desired.

Group Activities Listing

This default Activities Listing view is usually displayed on a tab available on the Group Home page of a group associated with the project, such as the Owning Group or Consensus Body. It provides an overview of all the activity going on in the group's various projects.

Figure J.2. Group Activities Listing Example

A screenshot of
	    http://sdo.demos.kavi.com/kst/member/group_projects/group_activities?gid=17. This view presents a rollup of all the activities from all the group's projects in one Activity Schedule, with one activity per row. The columns shown here are Project Name, Activity Type and
	    Date. The Date field includes the date that the activity
	    was recorded as complete, or the due date by which the activity is
	    scheduled to occur. In this example, this field also
	    displays the number of days overdue, if any. As in the
	    Group Projects Listing, each of
	    these column
	    headings can be clicked to change the sort order. The last
	    column in the table, Action, contains the View Details
	    link that can be clicked for
	    more information on a specific activity. At the top of the form, a View Group
	    Projects button leads back to the Group Projects
	    Listing. Below this is a Date Period search field that
	    can be used to narrow the displayed results. The
	    display can also be customized by changing the 'Results per page'.

This default view presents a rollup of all the activities from all the group's projects in one Activity Schedule. Each row contains a single activity, including the name of the project to which the activity belongs, the Activity Type and a Date field that presents the date complete, or the due date by which the activity is scheduled to occur. The Date Period search field can be used to narrow the displayed results, column headings can be clicked to change the sort order, and the viewer can also set the 'Results per page'. The last column in the table, Action, contains the View Details link that can be clicked for more information on a specific activity.
