Differences between the ToDo Client and the the ToDo-client Vertical
There is no difference between the ToDo-Client Vertical and the normal ToDo-client, when it comes to functionality. The divison of the tow areas is not horizontal here, but vertical, which can be helpful, if used on a widescreen monitor.
Differences between the ToDo-client and the ToDo-client 1G
The ToDo-client 1G is displayed in one widget only. Here, the tabs 'tasks', 'tasks of my groups', 'My instances', 'completed tasks', 'search', 'search results' can be seen. In the ToDo-client, two widgets are displayed. The one on top is designed exactly like the widget of the ToDo-client 1G. The bottom one additionally offers an (adapted) preview of the smartform and a live-view of the process model. In the ToDo-client, the user can additionally see an (adapted) preview of the corresponding smartform and a live-view of the process model in the below widget. The user can choose between these two previews via tab-choice.
Differences between the process-manager client and the process-manager client 4G
In the process-manager-client, only two widgets are displayed by default: Processes/instances as well as their activities and tasks. Whereas in the process-manager-client 4G four widgets are displayed by default. Here, the graphical analysis “instances per activity” and the “live-view process model” are additionally displayed by default. These widgets can be displayed in the process-manager-client by right-clicking on a definition → “instances per activity” or right-clicking on one instance → “model”.
