# Filter Tasks by Type, Status, or Due Date

## Find what you need quickly with filters and sorting

When your Inbox gets busy, use filters and sorting to find specific tasks quickly.

**This article is relevant to:** All roles

**Feature:** *Inbox*

## Filtering Your Inbox

Use the filter options at the top of your Inbox to narrow your view:

- **By notification type** – Show only review tasks, goal updates, or meeting reminders
- **By status** – Show unread, read, or archived items

## Sorting Your Inbox

Sort your inbox by:

- **Date** – Most recent or oldest first
- **Title** – Alphabetical order
- **Due date** – Prioritize upcoming deadlines

## Finding Overdue Tasks

Tasks past their due date will be flagged. Filter by status or sort by due date to quickly identify overdue items that need immediate attention.

**Note:** Deadlines in Zal are soft—reviews can technically still be submitted after the deadline. But completing tasks on time ensures your feedback is included in AI-generated drafts.
