About this task

The Project and Project task columns are shown in the default List view of a CWM Board. If the columns have been removed from a personalized view, use column customization to add them back.

The Project value is derived from the Project task value and updates automatically when the Project task value changes. You can also set the Project value directly, which clears the Project task value. For more information, see Change or remove the project task connection for a CWM item. You can open a linked project or project task directly from these columns.

Procedure

Navigate to Workspaces > Collaborative Work Management.
Open the Space that contains your Board, and then open the Board in the List view.
Select the Personalize icon ([Omitted image "icon-personalize.png"] Alt text: Personalize List and Gantt views.).

If the Project and Project task columns are already visible, skip to the last step.
Select the Project and Project task columns from the Available columns list to move them to the Active columns list.

Save the current view so the columns persist for the next session.

For more information about saving a view, see Update a CWM Board view.
To open the linked record, select the value in the Project or Project task column.

The linked Project Workspace record opens in a new browser tab.

Result

The Project and Project task columns display for each work item on the Board. For work items with no connection to a project task, the columns are empty.
