# Your Docufree Inbox
The inbox section can be separated into the following areas:
# Pager
The pager control shows the number of pages that are available for the current list. It improves response performance by showing only limited items at once. At anytime you can refresh the current list by clicking on the button.
Note
The inbox list will always display the most recent item first.

# View Options
If you have workflow tasks assigned to you, they are also added to your inbox. However, the inbox is not the optimal place to manage workflow tasks. You can hide the task items by clicking on the Show drop-down and un-check the Workflow Tasks checkbox.
The inbox list also provides a simple filter box to make searching inbox items possible. The filter will look at the sender name, file name, subject, and message fields to find the matches.
# Item List
The item list has the following columns:
Column | Description |
---|---|
Selection Box | You can select more than one item to perform an action.
|
Importance | If the inbox item is a priority item, a ! mark will display in this column. |
From | The sender information and the date and time the inbox item was received. |
Name | The name of the file. Click on the link to view the item. The image icon represents the file type, such as Word, Excel, PDF, TIF, CAD, etc. |
