The List displays project and program data in a clear grid view. You can use it, for example, to quickly identify projects and programs that need action before your next meeting.

Sort Your Projects and Programs
Click on a column's name to sort your projects or programs. Columns such as the project or program name are sorted alphanumerically. Columns containing details from project and program fields of the single-select and multi-select type (such as Stage Gate) are sorted by the order of their options. Administrators manage these values under Manage > Custom Project Fields.
Save Your Configuration as a Custom View
You can save every configuration of the List as a Custom View. Click the custom view name next to the title List to select a different view or add a new view. To edit the view name or delete the view, click the three dots next to the view name. Depending on your user rights, you can also define access rights to the view for users and user groups.
Learn more in the Custom Views article.
Exporting the List
If you have the Export Data user right, you can export your configured List by clicking Export to Excel in the toolbar.
If you export the field Last Changed, it may be that the time of the last change is missing from the Excel file. To fix this, configure the date and time settings in your Excel program to show both the date and the time.
