Contents of the Column Settings Dialog Box for Project Planning Grids

Use the fields and options to select columns to display in the planning grids on the Plan form of the Projects hub and to select other options for those grids.

The set of columns from which you can choose for each grid is determined by selections your system administrator makes on the Grids tab of the Resource Planning Settings form.

Contents

Field Description
Show Project Numbers To display the WBS element numbers in the grid along with their names, select this checkbox.
Select Columns For Select Cost View or Billing View on the Expenses, Consultants, and Units tabs to indicate which view you want to select columns for. If you want to select columns for both views, select them for one view, change the option in Select Columns For, and select them for the other view. When you click Apply, the columns for both views are updated.

If a plan is set up in the Plan Settings dialog box to support planning for both cost and billing, you can view planned amounts in the grid at cost or at billing. When you switch between those two views, Vantagepoint also displays the corresponding set of columns. If a plan is set up only for cost or only for billing, just that set of columns is used in the grid.

This field is not available if you are selecting columns for the grid on the Contract tab.

Find Available/Selected Columns Use these search fields to filter long lists of available columns. Enter one or more alphanumeric characters in the search field to display a list of columns that contain those characters.
Available Columns This list contains all of the columns that you can include in the grid but are not currently selected for display. To add a column to the grid, click the column in this list to move the column to the Selected Columns list.
Selected Columns

This list contains all of the columns that are selected to display in the grid, in the order they appear in the grid from left to right.

To change the column order, hover over the row for a column that you want to move and then click and drag to move the column.

To remove a column from the grid, click to the right of a column in the Selected Columnslist, to move the column back to the Available Columns list.

The order of the columns from top to bottom in the Selected Columns list is the order they appear, from left to right, in the planning grid. To change that order, hover over the row for a column and then click and drag to move the column.
Restore Defaults If you change the settings or columns for the grid and then want to restore the default settings and columns, click Restore Defaults. The organization, project manager, and status columns are not included as default columns.

If you are selecting columns for the Expenses, Consultants, or Units tab on the Plan form, this action only restores the default columns for the view currently selected in the Select Columns For field. To restore the default columns for the other view, select that view in Select Columns For and click Restore Defaults again.

Apply After you select the settings and columns that you want, click Apply to apply the updates to the grid and to close the dialog box.
