  11. Access the Columns 1–20 and Columns 21–40 tabs to add or delete column names and specify the columns to include in the Chart subform of the Project Status Inquiry form.

    You can view the details for the columns by clicking on the orange square in the upper left corner of the column fields. See Column Information Hover Forms.

  12. (Optional) Select the check box to the right of a column name to have the column appear in the chart on the Display tab of the Chart subform. If you selected the check boxes when you set up the column layout that you use, then the system checks the box for you. You cannot select the check box for visual alert columns.

    You can also select and clear the check boxes on the Selection tab of the Chart subform on the Project Status Inquiry form.

  13. Optionally, on the Display tab, click the Preview button to view the selected jobs in the Work with Project Status Inquiry form.

    • Click the View Now button to process records and display the results in the Project Status Inquiry form.

      You can use this option only when the Allow View Later Processing processing option allows you to save results.

      The system displays the Enter View Description form in which you enter up to 120 characters in the Description field. You must complete the Description field. When you click OK, the system displays the View Later Status dialog box.
