Remove fields from dashboard

[daniel_humberg]

The dashboard on the cProjects entry page (4.5.) contains about 50 different columns. Some of them are visible by default, while others can be added via ALV-personalization (link "Settings").

I have now successfully added some customer fields to the dashboard, so that I have about 60 columns.

Now, some of the default columns do not make sense at all in my company. How can I remove them from the dashboard (with removing I mean not only remove them from the default view of the table, but also from the list of possible columns under "Settings").

I can of course delete them from the structure DPR_TS_DASHBOARD_ATTR, but this would be a modification, and could lead to syntax errors or other problems after the next upgrade.

Is there an easier way?

Hi Daniel,

I don't think you can remove them, as it's a standard layout. For there are two options:

- Either you remove the them from the defailt view in the administration mode for instance. In that case, the columns remain selectable in the settings as you mentionned.

- Or you create a custom extract layout, copy from the standard one, without the non-desired fields.

Hi Matthias,

i wonder if a self-made extract layout will really help.

Where can I define which extract layout shall be used for the dashboard?

Regards,
