# Task Columns

> Choose the columns of the task list and learn what each one shows.

The task list shows seven columns at first: **Task Type**, **Title**, **Content**, **Label**, **Start Time**, **Status** and **Assignee**. You can show up to ten columns at once, taken from the standard columns and from the fields of your task types.

## Choose columns

Open **Activities › Task** and click **Columns**.

<div align="center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mileappv4/is2Iz6JyejGk_jkF/images/v4/activities/task-columns.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=is2Iz6JyejGk_jkF&q=85&s=1401e0f97aad6bd93ebb68e43f83f47b" alt="Columns" width="600" data-path="images/v4/activities/task-columns.png" />
</div>

1. **Search by task type name**: find a column, or the task type whose fields you want.
2. **Reset to the default columns**: go back to the seven default columns.
3. **Counter**: how many columns are on, out of ten. Point at the **i** icon to read which fields can be added: input, select and most view fields from every task type.
4. **Standard Columns**: the columns every task has. Turn one on or off with its switch.
5. **Task type groups**: after the standard columns come the fields of each task type, one group per task type, page by page.

Once ten columns are on, the other switches are locked until you turn one off.

Your column choice is saved in this browser for you, per organization. Drag a column header's edge to make it wider; the width is kept too.

## Task type columns

Below the standard columns, each task type lists its own fields, for example *Receiver Name* or *Delivery Status*. A task type field column is filled only for tasks of that task type; other rows stay empty.
