> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://portavi.gitbook.io/portavi-docs/llms.txt). Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://portavi.gitbook.io/portavi-docs/tracking-delivery/my-focus.md). # My Focus My Focus is the first page you see after signing in: everything waiting on **you**, in one place, resolvable without leaving it. {% hint style="info" %} Executives don't have a My Focus page. Everything on it is a manager's to do, so executives sign in to **Overview** instead. {% endhint %}
The My Focus page: pending actions grouped by type, with recent flagged items and signals below
## Ask the assistant At the top of the page is a field for asking [the assistant](/portavi-docs/ai/the-assistant.md) anything about your work: which of these to do first, what is overdue across your projects, how a sprint is going. Your question starts a new chat and opens the assistant page, where the answer is already on its way. The assistant reads this page too. Ask it "what's waiting on me?" or "what should I tackle first?" anywhere in Portavi and it answers from the same list, grouped as it is here. On this page, the assistant's suggestions offer those questions. Workspaces on Starter do not have the assistant, and the page opens straight into the actions below. ## What counts as an action Actions are things only you can do, for the portfolios, programmes and projects **you own**: | Action | Appears when | | ------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Slipping dependency** | A [dependency](/portavi-docs/governance/dependencies.md) is slipping, and you own one of its ends or the programme or portfolio it was created on. These come first | | **Issues due** | An [issue](/portavi-docs/governance/issues.md) you logged is open or in progress and its target date is today or past | | **Assumptions to check** | An [assumption](/portavi-docs/governance/assumptions.md) you logged is unvalidated and its check-by date is today or past | | **Budget check-in** | A budget's check-in is due today or overdue | | **Sprint review** | A sprint has closed and has not been reviewed or skipped, one row per sprint | | **Cadence review** | A [cadence](/portavi-docs/tracking-delivery/cadences.md) has closed and been frozen without a review, one row per cadence, on Kanban projects | | **Strategy review** | A portfolio has passed 90% of its strategy cycle: the same moment the portfolio page's review button appears | | **Benefit review** | A programme you own has passed 90% of its benefit review cycle: the same moment its Reviews tab shows a dot | | **Change requests** | A [change request](/portavi-docs/governance/change-requests.md) is waiting for your decision, or is approved and waiting for you to apply it | | **Intake requests** | A [request for new work](/portavi-docs/intake/requesting-new-work.md) is waiting for you to screen it, decide on it or create it, or was sent back to you or decided | | **Questions for you** | Someone else [commented](/portavi-docs/tracking-delivery/comments.md#questions-in-my-focus) on something you own in the last 30 days, and you have not replied | | **Tasks assigned to you** | A task in a connected tool is assigned to you and is overdue or due today; see below | | **Connection** | An integration has lost its authentication and syncing is paused (PMO Managers only) | Being a PMO Manager does not put the whole workspace's chores here; you see what you own, like everyone else. Workspace-wide oversight lives on [the Overview dashboard](/portavi-docs/tracking-delivery/overview-dashboard.md). When something needs you, the compass icon in the navigation carries a red dot. It clears the moment your last action is resolved. ## Resolving actions Select any card to open what it is about: the check-in or review dialog right here, or the item's preview on its own page. A task opens in its own tool. In bulk mode, selecting a card ticks it instead. Every action resolves in place: * **Resolve** or **Close** on an issue settles it straight away, and the row goes. Resolved means fixed; closed means dropped. * **Validate** or **Invalidate** on an assumption records the check straight away. An invalidated assumption then offers, on its own page, to raise a risk or an issue. * **Check in** opens a small dialog: pick the date, add an optional note, and the spend snapshot is taken automatically, exactly as from the project's budget tab. * **Review** on a sprint opens the sprint review: the same one you'd reach from the sprints tab. **Skip** records a skipped review, so the sprint stops asking; you can still review it later from the sprints tab. * **Review** on a cadence works the same way, opening the cadence review from the cadences tab, with the same Skip. * **Start review** on a portfolio opens the five-step strategy review. * **Start review** on a programme opens its **Reviews** tab. * A slipping dependency has no button: select the card to open its preview on the programme or portfolio it was created on. The row goes away once the dates line up again. * **Reply** on a question opens it where it was asked, highlighted. Replying clears it. * **Reauthenticate** takes you to the Integrations page with the right tool's connection dialog already open. * A task opens in Jira, Asana or wherever it lives when you select it. It is done there, not here, so the next sync clears it. ### Your tasks For Portavi to know which synced assignee is you, your account has to be [linked](/portavi-docs/settings/team-members.md#linking-a-portavi-user) to your identity in the tool; a PMO manager does that in Settings, and the ribbon usually suggests it. Until then this group is simply absent. Once linked, the list spans every synced project in the workspace, whether or not you own it, and a ticket synced into two projects appears once. The list is capped at forty; anything beyond is counted underneath. ## Bulk resolve **Bulk change**, at the end of the first group's heading, reveals checkboxes: tick individual actions, use a group header to select a whole group, or **Select all**. **Resolve** opens one dialog for everything selected: check-ins save together (each with its own date and note); issues and assumptions each get a section where every row has its own **Resolve** / **Close** or **Validate** / **Invalidate**, and the section header settles them all at once; reviews then open one after another, each in its full editor. Skipping a review in the queue drops it without touching the rest. ## Recent on your projects Below the actions, a read-only feed of the latest [flagged items and signals](/portavi-docs/tracking-delivery/flagged-items.md) and the latest entries from each project's **Activity** tab, across your projects, including projects inside programmes and portfolios you own, even when someone else runs them day to day. These are for awareness, not chores: they never light the navigation dot, and clicking a row opens the project (an activity row opens its Activity tab). Use the **Flagged**, **Signals** and **Activity** chips to choose which kinds show. ## All clear When nothing is waiting on you, the page says so, and the recent feed stays visible below, so a caught-up morning still shows you what moved overnight. ## If the workspace is read-only Everything waiting on you is still listed; knowing what is outstanding is not the part you pay for. What changes is the buttons: each one carries the lock icon and takes a PMO manager to Billing rather than doing the thing. Bulk change disappears for the same reason. See [plans and billing](/portavi-docs/settings/plans-and-billing.md#what-read-only-actually-looks-like).
