Customizing Work Item Columns

You may want to customize the columns that are displayed in the work item list so that only certain columns are displayed, or to change the order in which the columns are displayed.

Procedure

  1. From Work Views, navigate to Grid Setting () located at the far right of the Search box.
  2. Press Enter. The Work Item Summary is displayed. See Work Item Columns for a description of the columns.
    The columns that are currently displayed in Work Views have a numeric value assigned to them. The numeric values indicate the columns that are displayed and their order, with 1 being the first column and 7 being the last column.
  3. You can use the Tab or Up and Down arrow keys to move between the boxes. To change the columns that are displayed, you can:
    • Change the existing order of the columns by renumbering them.
    • Change the columns that are displayed by deleting a number from a column you do not want to display and typing a number against a new column.
    • Enter any value between 0 and 99 and the columns are ordered relatively to the values you enter. A blank or negative value removes the column.
  4. Press Tab, Enter on Grid Setting () to save your changes and exit Work Item Summary.
