View Tips and Tricks

Begin your day by filtering to your assigned tasks. This gives you a clear picture of your workload.
The Kanban board makes status changes visual and intuitive. Great for team visibility.
When you need to update many tasks at once, table view with checkboxes is the fastest.
If you frequently check the same filtered view, save it for one-click access.
Hide completed tasks to focus on active work. Include Done when you need to review completed items.

Best Practices

  • Planning: List or Table view
  • Daily work: Kanban or My Tasks
  • Reporting: Table view with exports
Set your default view to show relevant, active work. Hide done tasks and archive completed work.
With many tasks, filtering is faster and more reliable than scrolling through everything.
As projects evolve, update your saved views to match current needs.
