Change List Filter Field Names and Display Properties

Use the Configure: List Filter Fields page to change the filter field names, and to edit field display properties. The Filter Label fields display the names of the fields on the list page you started from. The Attribute field is a read-only field that displays the system name of the field. The Data Type field is a read-only field that displays the field’s data type.

Change the fields to display and edit

By default, the Configure: List Filter Fields page lists the names of the default filter fields (referred to as selected). You can change this page to display only available fields, or both Available and Selected fields. Available fields are those fields that come with CA Clarity PPM out of the box but do not appear in a filter until someone configures them to do so.

  1. From a list page you want to change the type of fields to display and edit, select Configure from the Actions menu.

  3. In the Display field, choose the type of fields you want to appear on the page.
