Using the Engagement List Page

The Engagement List page is your home page in CCH iFirm Engagement. It lists the engagements created by your firm, with the most recently opened engagements at the top. From here, you can click an engagement name to open that engagement or click Create New Engagement to create a new one.

You can reach the Engagement List page from any other location by clicking Engagement in the left pane of CCH iFirm or by clicking Engagement in the breadcrumb trail at the top of any page in CCH iFirm Engagement.

As your firm adds more engagements, the search and pagination features described below can help you efficiently find the engagements you need.

My Recent Engagements

Engagement list displays the top 25 most recently opened engagements, including new roll forward or copy engagements.

If any of the recent engagements are approaching their document completion date or have passed their completion date, you will be given a notification when you log in. Notifications can be disabled by unchecking the Show notifications setting in the Firm Options page.

Note: These engagements will also display if they are Due soon or Overdue in the status column on the engagement list.
