The unread items counter is red and displays all unopened items on case and document lists that can be displayed in detail tab pages, including custom lists containing case or document filters. Only unopened cases or documents where you are the case handler are included in the count, for example new or existing cases or document you have not yet opened as a case handler.
Unopened items are additionally displayed in bold in the tab page or list.
The counter uses the MRU (Most Recently Used) list to determine if an item has been opened. When a case or document is opened, it will be registered as having been read.
