To Do Lists

Managing To Dos via List View

Discover how easy it is to utilize ConstructionOnline's spreadsheet-style List View

List View for ConstructionOnline™ To Do Lists serves as the default view for managing your To Dos, offering a next-generation dynamic table that allows you to easily view, organize, and update your construction tasks. Boasting a familiar spreadsheet format, List View provides unparalleled flexibility and control for managing tasks with features like inline editing, sortable and adjustable column controls, interactive cell elements, and more. 

To ensure that each member of your project team can customize their task management experience to meet their specific needs, any styling and formatting changes made in ConstructionOnline To Do Lists are user-specific. This means any changes to the way task data is displayed or organized will only be reflected for the user making the customizations. But, while each user's interface may appear different due to their personal customizations, it's important to note that this does not alter the underlying data. Because List View is built on a dynamic table, any user interactions or data changes made to tasks are reflected in real-time, so you can rest assured you and your team are always getting the most up-to-date information. 

With an emphasis on comprehensive yet customizable data display, List View offers a powerful and intuitive interface for efficient task management including the following capabilities -
