The Appraisal Desktop provides an easy way for you to customize the columns
you see in the Files view. By customizing the column layout in the Files
view, you can reduce the number of times you have to open a report just to look
up some information about it, like the amount due on the report. To change the
items displayed in the file list…
- From the Appraisal Desktop, right-click
anywhere in the file list and choose Edit column layout.
- Select the desired information from the Available Fields
pane on the left. Double-click the item to add it to the Displayed
Fields list, or just click Add.
- To remove a field, double-click it in the Displayed
Fields list, or select it and click Remove.
- Use the Up and Down buttons to
re-position the fields in the list.
- If desired, select an item in the Displayed Fields list
and enter a new title for the column in the Title box.
- Set the initial width of the column by adjusting the number in the
Width field.
- Click Sort by this field if this is the field by which
you’d like to initially sort your reports.
- Set the initial sort direction to Ascending or
Descending by selecting the appropriate option in the
Options box.
- If you’d prefer not to see the column headings, un-check the Show
column titles box.
- Click OK to save your settings.
Once your column layout is set, you can modify the column order and width by
clicking and dragging the title header of the column. Likewise, you can resort
the list by clicking the title header of any column.
