      List View

      The List View is a way of looking at a list of Items in KaiNexus. With this view, you can add and remove columns to control which information is displayed for each Item.

      The List View is fully customizable. You can add, remove, and rearrange columns to show any combination of information you want. By default, the following columns will appear:

      • Status: The status will be written out and will also be indicated by the color of the bar next to each Item.
      • Template
      • Title
      • Key People: The most important team role (as determined by the Item's Team Type and current status) will be listed along with all the users in that role.
      • Key Dates: Each Item's last updated date and one additional key date will be listed. The additional key date is chosen based on the Item's current status. For example, active Items' due dates and completed Items' completed dates will be shown.

      Working with the List View

      • When in the List View, click any of the listed Items to open it.
      • Quickly edit an Item. You can edit Items by clicking on the specific column of data that you want to update, by clicking the ellipsis icon that appears when hovering over the Item you want to update, or by right-clicking the Item you want to update.
