# Workbench

# 🛠️ **Workbench**  

> **"Your control room for tasks, timelines, and processes."**  
> *Plan, track, and execute everything in one place.*  



## **1️⃣ Overview**  
The **Workbench module** provides a **centralized space** to manage and monitor all your ongoing activities.  
It brings together tasks, timelines, and workflows so you always know what’s happening and what comes next.

## **2️⃣ Key Views**  

### **① Tasks Overview**  
The "My compliance" menu gives a view for all tasks of the current user. In the Tasks overview you get a global overview on all open tasks with a quick visibility into:  
* ✅ Pending assignments  
* ⏳ Upcoming deadlines for tasks, risks and process actions
* 👤 Task ownership and status  

You find more detailed information in our [Task Management](https://docs.brainframe.com/en/article/task-management-1kz2hrb/) article

### **② Timeline View**  
Track your work **chronologically in a Gantt timeline**, including:  
* Project phases  
* Milestones  
* Deadlines  

These can be grouped per process or per assigned user. You find more details in our [Timeline & Roadmaps](https://docs.brainframe.com/en/article/timeline-roadmaps-1j2qyys/) article

### **③ Process Kanban**  
Process and procedure documentation is static. With process workflows you can translate this into a visual Kanban:
* Columns for each stage (e.g., Open → In Progress → Completed)  
* Monitor bottlenecks and overall progress  

You find more information on this in our [Process Management](https://docs.brainframe.com/en/article/process-management-br4e74/) article
