Configuring the Results List Column Display in a Custom Inbox
When you create a new task type, all available columns are selected for display. You can modify the columns to be displayed by default when a user opens a custom task inbox. Each user has the ability to modify the columns displayed with the Tools > Properties menu after accessing the inbox. These values are persisted on a per-user basis by the default Scope setting for the preference, Value Stored Per User.
To modify the default column display in the task Inbox Results list
1. In the Solutions view, locate and expand the task you want to work with.
2. Double-click any portlet to open the portlet editor.
3. Click the Configuration tab if it is not already selected.
4. In the Portlet Application Configuration list, locate the [ taskName]InboxResults portlet and expand the Preferences node within it.
5. Select the columnDisplay preference.
6. Initially, the Value list of the Portlet Preference area is empty. This signifies that all available columns are displayed when the inbox is opened. Do one of the following:
If the
Value list is empty:
Click
Add to specify an individual column for display. When you add one or more values to the list, only the specified columns are displayed to the user.
Click the
Enter Value Here entry in the list and type a column name. You can obtain the column name by opening the task in its custom inbox in
My webMethods and viewing the
ID fields on the
General tab in the
Tools > Properties view. For example,
taskPriorityColumn.
If the
Value list is populated, click
Add to add another column, or select an existing entry and click
Delete to remove a column. If all values are removed (that is, the the
Value list is empty), all available columns are displayed.
7. Save your changes.
