SharePoint 2013 provides users with flexible ways to
display their list information by using views. You control which fields
appear in each list, the field order, as well as filtering or sorting
on multiple columns. Additionally, information can be grouped to
collapse or expand for a treelike view. Users can determine whether
their configured views are available to all users or just themselves,
and can be defined for mobile devices. If a preferred view of the list
data already exists but is not the default view, SharePoint 2013 makes
it easy to switch to that view.
-
Click the drop-down menu icon (...) above the list headings. -
On the menu that appears, click Create View.
-

Tip
Only include relevant columns to reduce the amount of columns
visible on your screen. All fields are visible when you click the link
to the item.
Tip
Instead of creating a new view from scratch, use the Start From An
Existing View option when choosing to create a new view and make
modifications.
-
On the Create View page, in the View Name text box, enter a unique name for the view. -
Select the Make This The Default View check box to make this new view the default view. -
In the View Audience section, choose to make the view Personal (for your use only) or Public (available to all site users). -
In the Columns section, you can perform two activities:
-
Select the check box adjacent to the columns that you want to
display in the view; clear the check boxes adjacent to the columns that
you want to hide. -
Order the columns sequentially from left to right by selecting numbers in the Position From Left column.
-
At the top or bottom of the page, click OK.
-
Click the drop-down menu icon (...) above the list headings. -
On the menu that appears, click the view that you want to display.
Tip
Three view links are available above the list’s columns, available for quick toggling.
