Customize Table View in Tasks

There are four ways in which you can customize your Tasks Table view:

• Rearrange the Columns
• Order the Columns
• Resize the Columns
• Add or Remove Columns

Any customization you perform will only affect you and only on the device you’re currently on, so you could have one customization on your desktop device and another on your mobile device.

Rearrange the Columns

To rearrange the columns simply click on a column heading and drag it to the position you desire.   In the example below, we moved Due Date to the second column.

Order the Columns

Most columns can be ordered either alphabetically or chronologically.  To order the columns, simply hover over the column name and click on the up/down arrow to the right of the name.  In the example below we reordered the due date column to display from soonest to latest date.

Resizing the Columns

Columns can be resized to your liking by clicking on the column divider and dragging and dropping.

Add or Remove Columns

You can customize the table view to show only the fields that you are interested in displaying.   To do this, click the Manage columns icon . 

You will then see the Customize Table View window.  The Customize Table View window will show you a list of all of the Table view fields that are currently displayed, and all of the Available Fields.  Here you can drag and drop the fields you want to display in the table view.  Click on Save after you arrange the columns to your liking.     

Note that the Category custom field has been moved to the table.
