Filter or Remove Filter from the List of Tasks

Modified: 6 Jun 2026 Viewpoint Field View Help

You can apply filters to limit the tasks displayed and quickly find the ones you want to work with. When you are finished, you can clear the filter to see all tasks in a project.

You can use the filter to create a list of tasks for a location or status or other criteria, and then run a report for those selected tasks. You can apply several filters at once, but only tasks that match all the criteria are displayed. Other users are not affected by the filters you add.
  1. Select the menu icon in the upper left corner, then choose Tasks.
  2. Select the Filters icon.
    The Filters pane appears.
  3. Select any filter name and enter criteria, or clear the selected filter:

    Tip: The filter icon appears next to each header where filters are selected.
  4. To remove the filter, select the X next to the Filter pane name.
  5. Select Hide Filters to hide the Filters pane.
The list of tasks is limited to just those that meet all the criteria you entered and the Filters icon appears blue to indicate the list is filtered. The icon returns to black when all filters have been cleared.
If needed, make different selections in the filter to filter by different criteria. If you want to change which columns the list uses, see Change the Columns for the List of Tasks.
