Changing item list columns

You can customize information displayed in item lists by adding or removing columns, moving columns, changing column contents, and more.

Tip:  If you make changes to columns and want to save the configuration to use later, you can save the tab. See Saving the current item list tab.

Adding and removing columns

  • To add a column, click the columns and views button and choose the column to add. You can also search for a column.
  • To remove a column, click the columns and views button and choose the column to remove. Check marks indicate currently displayed columns. You can also mouse over a column heading and click the Remove Column button to remove it.

Rearranging columns

Click the column heading to move and drag it to the new location.

Sorting columns

  • To sort items in the list based on values in the column, click a column heading. An arrow is displayed to indicate the sort order. An up arrow indicates ascending order and a down arrow indicates descending order. Click the column heading again to switch the sort order.
  • To sort items based on a secondary value, Shift+click another column heading. For example, you may want to sort issues based on product and then by type. A double arrow indicates the column is used as secondary sort criteria and the sort order. Shift+click the column heading again to switch the sort order from ascending to descending or vice versa.

Resizing columns

Drag the divide bar on the right side of a column to change the width.
