List Pane
The List pane shows what you select in the Navigation pane. Select a Portfolio to list its Procedures, or select your Assignments Inbox to list your Assignments. The buttons in the List pane header filter, search, sort, and create items. When viewing a Portfolio, you can also switch between its Procedures and its Assignments, and between a List and a Grid view.
Detail Pane
