Is it possible to save custom views for columns?
I would like to be able to show, hide, sort, and order columns via a template. I am able to filter based on specific conditions but I also need to be able to view the data a specific way.
Hi Mike,
You can use filters in the sheets to show specific rows or use different reports to sort rows and to hide or change the order of columns. It sounds to me as multiple reports that are sorted and arranged in the specific views that you want and need would be the best solution.

Happy to help!
Mike
have you tried setting up a dashboard to view your data in ways that will be more graphically appealing to the user?
Otherwise, I dont see an easy solution.
Hope that helps

The SSFeatures browser extension allows you to save and load column "Views" for column visibility, as well as saving sort "settings" for sorting.
To use SSFeatures' column views:
Click the "Hide / Unhide Columns" button and use the Save button to name your view. Load it instantly with one click whenever you need that configuration.
After you click "Hide / Unhide Columns", you'll see a popup that looks like this:
Use "Save" and "Load" to create column views.
