The required fields are noted with an asterisk (*).

 

Data Type* :Specifies what kind of data the workbox displays.

 

Title*: The workbox title. It will appear in the workbox title bar.

 

Grid Layout*:  In this field, to give your data table a polished appearance and make your data easy to read and understand, you can add, remove, reorder columns, and specify column width.

 

To add columns, click the Add icon add column in the tool bar, and the system will pop up the Add Columns window. Select check boxes for columns you want to add and click  the OK button. The selected columns will appears in the View Results area.

 

To remove a column, select the column your want to remove by clicking the column name, and then click the Remove the Selected Column icon Delete.

 

To change the column name, select the column and click Modify Fields Name icon Modify Fields Name, and the system will pop up the Modify Fields Name window.  The selected column name will be updated if click Save button.

To specify a column width, click the column name of the column your want to specify the column width, and then select a width value by selecting a radio button. If Auto Adjusted is selected, the column width will automatically fit the table.

 

Filter Data:  Specifies which data will be displayed in the workbox. Only data that meets the criteria you specified will be displayed. Click on "Select" link to add a filter. You can group filters by "and" relationship or by "or" relationship.  First click on the arrow icon of a row header and choose "Select" to select the filter you want to include in the group. Then specify the group relationship by clicking "Group And" or "Group Or". A grouping box will appear to indicate the filters in the group. To adjust settings of the group, click on the arrow icon in the grouping box. With filters and filter grouping, you can specify very complicated criteria.

 

Sort by: You may sort data by more than one attribute.  For example, for a workbox of Issue data type, you can first sort by Issue Date, and then sort by Issue Priority. To add a sort level, click the Add Level iconAddRow. A row will be added below the corresponding row. To remove a sort level, click the Remove Level icon DeleteRow.  Attributes higher in the list will be sorted before the lower entries in the list.

Maximum Height*: Between 250px to 500px, maximum height of the workbox. By default 0px means the height of workbox is auto-fit to its contents.
