The Dashboard is the first item in the sidebar and is your personal to‑do view. It opens on My Actions, a list of every incomplete action item that has been assigned to you in client meetings. This replaced the older dashboard of client‑group report widgets (New Clients, Finalised Clients, In Progress and Client Group Status).
Ask Nagaris on the dashboard
If your firm has Ask Nagaris turned on, an Ask Nagaris bar appears above My Actions. Type a question to start a new chat.
You can also open Ask Nagaris from the sidebar when it is available for your firm.
The composer's agent control lets you point your question at a specific specialist agent instead of the default Ask Nagaris, and the client/group control lets you scope it to one client or group. See "Choosing an agent and adding client context in Ask Nagaris".
When an answer cites a document or an email, click it to open a preview right there instead of leaving the chat. A cited email opens its conversation with that exact message expanded and highlighted, even if the thread has other messages around it.
Each answer has a thumbs up and thumbs down next to it, so you can rate how useful it was.
Thumbs up records the answer as helpful. No further action needed.
Thumbs down opens a short feedback box asking what was wrong with the answer. Add a note and submit it, or close the box to skip it, either way your rating is recorded. This feedback goes to the team behind Ask Nagaris to help improve future answers, it does not change or remove the answer already in your chat.
Choosing an agent for your chat
Next to the model selector in the chat box, an agent button shows which agent is answering. It opens on Ask Nagaris by default, but you can switch it before you send your first message:
Click the agent button and search or scroll the list to find a specialist, for example a CGT calculator for working out a property disposal.
Pick Mission Control if you're not sure which specialist you need. It looks at what you're asking and points you to the right one.
Selecting a specialist agent uses that agent's own model, so the regular model selector is hidden while a specialist is selected.
Once you've sent a message in a chat, the agent choice locks for the rest of that thread, so start a new chat if you want to switch agents. You can also start a chat with a specific specialist straight away from the Agents page in the sidebar, by opening that agent's card.
What appears in My Actions
My Actions shows action items that were recorded against client meetings and assigned to you. Only your items appear, action items assigned to a colleague show on their dashboard, not yours. Once an item is marked complete it disappears from the list.
Items are grouped by due date into up to four sections, each with a count:
Overdue: the due date has already passed. These rows also show a red Overdue label next to the date.
Due Today: due on today's date.
Upcoming: due on a future date.
No Due Date: action items that were saved without a due date.
A section only appears when it has at least one item, so a dashboard with nothing overdue will not show the Overdue section.
Each row shows:
The action item description.
The title of the meeting it came from.
The client the meeting relates to. If the meeting covered several clients you will see the first name plus a count, for example Smith Family Trust +2. Meetings linked only to a group show the group name.
A short preview of the meeting notes, when the meeting has notes.
The due date on the right, shown as day and month (for example 15 June).
Completing an action item
Tick the checkbox at the start of the row.
The item is removed from your list straight away and you will see the confirmation Action marked complete.
You can also complete items from inside the meeting itself. Open the meeting, go to the Actions tab and tick the checkbox next to the item. Completed items there display with a strikethrough. Completing an item anywhere removes it from your dashboard the next time it refreshes. The list also refreshes automatically when you return to the browser tab.
Opening the related meeting
Click anywhere on a row (other than the checkbox) to open the meeting in a side panel. From there you can review the Details, Actions and Transcript tabs, or click Edit to change the meeting, including reassigning action items or changing due dates.
Adding a meeting from the dashboard
Use the Add Meeting button. It appears below your action list, and also in the empty state.
Click Add Meeting. A dialog opens with the prompt Link the meeting to a client or a client group.
Start typing in Search clients or client groups.... Results are grouped under Clients and Client Groups. Archived client groups are excluded from the results.
Select a result. The meeting panel opens so you can record the title, date, attendees, notes and action items straight away.
Good to know
If you have no outstanding items, the dashboard shows You are all caught up with the note Action items assigned to you in client meetings will appear here, plus the Add Meeting button so you can record a new meeting on the spot.
Due dates are calendar dates, so an item moves from Due Today to Overdue at midnight in your local time zone.
Users with client‑level access do not see the staff dashboard at all, signing in takes them directly to their own client group instead.
If an action item you expect is missing, check whether it was assigned to you (unassigned items do not appear on anyone's dashboard) and whether someone has already marked it complete. See the article on recording meetings for how assignments work.
