The User Counter widget displays the number of users that match selected conditions. Use it to see how many people carry outstanding tasks or notifications.
What this widget is for
Workload is not only about how many tasks exist - it is about how many people they land on. This counter shows how many users hold outstanding tasks or notifications, and how many are carrying overdue work. Managers use it to spot when the queue is sitting with too few people, or when overdue work is spreading across the team.
What the widget shows
The widget displays a single count of users matching the source you choose, filtered to overdue work only if you enable that option.
