Setting Worklist Column Preferences

Introduction

You can easily adjust your Worklist column settings to best utilize screen space and set your preferred view, so it is available to you each time you open that same Worklist. Each of the following options is applicable to the Worklist that is currently displaying and can be configured independently on each Worklist.

  • Modify the width of a column to make room for more important data.
  • Change the order of columns for easy access to the columns you reference most often.

  • Click the column heading. An upward facing indicator displays in the heading to show that the column is selected to sort in ascending order. The numeral next to the indicator indicates that this is the primary sort column.
  • Optional: Click the column heading again to change the sort order to descending. Notice that the sort indicator is now pointing down.

The column sort order is indicated by the corresponding number next to the column header.

  • Left-click and hold down the CTRL key and select multiple columns. An upward-facing indicator displays in the heading to show that the columns are selected to sort in ascending order. Notice that the order in which you select the columns is indicated in the column header. The Worklist will sort based on the primary, secondary, and tertiary selections you make.
  • Optional: Press and hold down the CTRL key and click any combination of (up to three) column headings again to change the sort order to descending. Notice that the sort indicators are now pointing down.
  • Optional: Press and hold down the CTRL key and click any combination of (up to three) column headings a third* time to turn off sorting. This action returns the column to its default sort order.

*Note: If you are filtering on more than one column, clicking the header a third time will turn off the filtering in the last column selected.
