# The Backlog page

> The full management view of everything on Abbie's backlog, for you and, if you administer it, your whole team.

The Backlog page is the complete view of Abbie's backlog: every item you're tracking personally, plus everything on the team's shared backlog.

<Note>
  This page is **Abbie's** backlog — the work she is tracking for you. It is a different thing from
  [Tasks in a Space](/spaces/tasks), which is your team's own task tracker. An Abbie backlog item can
  be handed over to it with **Promote to task**, described below.
</Note>

## Backlog and scheduled

The page splits into two segments:

* **Backlog**: the queue of outstanding work, sorted so the item that's been stalled longest surfaces first.
* **Scheduled**: a diary of what's coming up, reminders and scheduled work sorted soonest-first, including anything overdue.

Within the scheduled view you can further narrow to just reminders or just scheduled work.

## Filtering

Filter the backlog by status (to do, in progress, waiting on you, done, cancelled) or toggle to show only open items.

## Acting on an item

Depending on the item, you'll see some combination of these actions:

</Frame>

* **Mark done**
* **Defer** / **Change follow-up**: push out the date Abbie should next check back with you on this
* **Clear follow-up**
* **Promote to team**: move a personal item onto the shared team backlog
* **Promote to task**: hand the item off to your [Space's own task tracker](/spaces/tasks); a real task is created there and the backlog item is marked done. Which Space it files into is set by the [Task filing](/abbie/configuring/task-filing) setting
* **Reschedule** / **Cancel reminder** / **Stop repeating**: for scheduled items and recurring reminders, see [Reminders and schedules](/abbie/backlog/reminders-and-schedules)
* **Open chat**: jump to the conversation the item came from
* **Stop Abbie**: cancel the item, see [Cancelling and deferring](/abbie/backlog/cancelling-and-deferring)

## Deep links

A link to a specific item (for instance from the "Abbie needs you" card on the home page) opens the Backlog page with that item highlighted.

<Note>
  If you're an account admin, you can also switch to a cross-account view to see what's on other people's personal backlogs, useful for keeping an eye on what Abbie is doing for your team without anyone reporting it manually.
