At the bottom of the page there is a table with a list of all active process instances and current tasks related to these instances. The table shows filter results - results of the quick and advanced searches. Clicking on blue digits located in "Show by swimlanes and executors" and "Show by statuses" sections will also allow you to see these results.

Process information

This section contains general information such as (Fig. 2):
Clicking the Map link will open the process map in a new browser tab.
Clicking the Documentation link will open related process documentation in a new browser tab.
Published, Created, Owner and Supervisors fields show surname and initials of the users or the name of the user group. Clicking on the surname of a user opens a window with information about this user. Clicking on the group name will open the user group page, where you can change the group members. To do this you have to have permissions to manage user groups. Thus, if you do not have appropriate permissions, instead of the editing box you will see a warning message. An administrator can grant these permissions in Administration – Access Settings – Global Access Settings – Administration – Users Administration.
