Issue Management Portlet

The Issue Management portlet displays a list of issues associated to projects you have access to. The portlet has a default filter set to limit the issues to only the issues with a status of “Open” or “Work in Progress”. There is an Include Programs filter option that allows you to include programs in the portlet.
