Trouble shooting a Widget issues

Avatar

Level 2

Hello, I recently added two new users and assigned them to the same layout template as a multiple of other users. The new users don't have the column filter in the project and task widgets like the others do. I can't figure out why.  Does anyone have any insight as to how to have the column added back in? I attached a screenshot of what the new user has, and a screen shot of what the column should be.  Thank you.

I'm wondering if there's anything different about the new users -- like do they happen to have a different access level?

This is the answer. In order to edit columns at all, the user's access level must allow Create access for filters/views/groups.

I had this same thing happen. I adjusted user access levels to solve the issue. One confusing thing: In my user access settings, it notes "filters/views" when adjusting to edit vs. view access, but doesn't note groups. Adobe must assume that's a given.

agreed, I think this is the downfall of this feature. IMO, it is unwise to allow well-meaning but uneducated users to create views when they don't know what each field actually does.

Hello all, this community is the best.  I edited the access level for the work license and now everyone assigned to that license is able to see the column in their project and task widget. 

 

thank you!
