Discussion

As you adjust or start your project, you may need to view certain information. In addition to using the Filter list on the View ribbon, you can also use the AutoFilter feature to view only the information you need. You can use this feature in most views, including the Gantt Chart and Resource Sheet views.

The AutoFilter feature is always enabled, arrows appear next to the column headings. A list of filtering options appears when you select an AutoFilter arrow. After selecting the desired filtering option, the column heading and arrow appear in blue, indicating that an AutoFilter is in use, and only those items meeting the filter criteria appear in the current view. For example, if you only want to see resources that have an overtime rate of $40.00 per hour in the Resource Sheet view, you can select the arrow next to the Ovt. Rate column heading and choose the $40.00/hr option. After using an AutoFilter, you can choose the (All) option from the AutoFilter list to redisplay all items in the view.
