All users with access to the project can:
Filter their work items
Copy their work items
Change the order of their work items
Reorder their list fields
Filter your list view
Use Filter to filter work items in your list view. More about using filters
Sort your list view alphabetically
When you sort your list view, child work items will stay with their parent. The work type icons will be nested below each other, so you can clearly see how the items relate to each other.
To sort the list view alphabetically:
Hover over the field (column) header.
Select More actions (), then select Summary.
Select either Sort A to Z or Sort Z to A.
Reorder the fields in your list
Everyone visualizes their work differently, so you may want to customize the list view. Arrange your list so you can view the information that’s most important to you first.
To reorder the fields in your list:
Hover your cursor over the field (column) header.
Select More actions ().
Select Move column to first position to move it to the first column after the Work column.
Select Move column to left to move it one position to the left.
Select Move column to right to move it one position to the right.
Select Move column to last position to move it to the end.
The Work column will always be in the first position and can’t be moved.
Search the list
Use keywords from your work item summary, or description to search in the list view. Enter the keyword and all work items containing those keywords will be shown. You can also search by entering the whole work item key.
Hide work items marked as ‘Done'
Anyone with access to the project can hide work items marked as ‘Done’ or with the done status category:
Navigate to the list view in your project.
Select More actions () at the top-right of your list view.
Switch on the toggle to Hide done items.
Once you’ve hidden the done items, it will only appear for you. Those with access to the same project will need to hide it for themselves if they don’t want to see them.
