Tip #19: Filter projects based on criteria
In Zoho Projects, you can filter your projects based on groups, owners, clients, and custom fields.
Why?
The inbuilt filter will help you quickly access the projects that you are looking for. Based on the selected criteria, the projects are listed in your filter results. You can select the relevant project and access it.
How?

- Click the Filter icon in the upper-right corner.
- Select the default fields based on your criteria.
- Click Find to filter projects based on the selected criteria.
View by Group - Filter a particular group of projects in your portal.
Use case
User A: I have 90+ projects in my portal and I have grouped 4 projects in 'SAP Phase 3' and 6 in 'ERP Projects', and 4 in 'Implementation'. Now, I want to view only the 6 projects from the group - ERP Projects.
Solution: Choose View by Group from the drop-down in the upper-left corner to view all the projects that are grouped. To view the projects in the group 'ERP Projects', select it from the Group and view all the projects in it.
View by Client - Filter the client projects in your portal
Use case
User A : I have 90+ client projects in my portal and as an Admin I want to view the projects in the client company - Marvel Studios, Leester Donnelly and Sons, and Nexus - The Language Studio.
Solution: Choose View by Client and multi-select the client companies in the Client field. Now, you can view the list of projects in each client company. Now, you can choose a particular project that you wish to access. Also, you can narrow down your search by selecting the owner and custom fields.
View by Owner - Filter projects by owner
Use case
User A : I have 90+ projects in my portal and as an Admin I want to view only the projects owned by 'Patricia Boyle'.
Solution: Choose View by Owner and start filtering projects based on the owner. You can select Patricia Boyle from the owner's list and fetch all the projects owned by Patricia Boyle. You can also narrow down your search by selecting the custom fields.
Filter by Custom Fields
User A: I have 90+ projects in my portal and I have created 3 custom fields - Browser, DRI, and Tester. I have mentioned default values for every field. Now, I want to view the projects based on the custom field - Browser. How can I view it?
Solution: Based on your business requirement, you can create custom fields in your portal and use it in your projects. Know more on custom fields . Now, choose either one of the three views (View by Group, View by Client, or View by Owner) and select the desired values in the custom field 'Browser' and filter the projects.
Can I view all the custom fields in the filter?
Only the custom field with the text fields Picklist and User Picklist are visible in the filter criteria.
Do you want to filter projects based on specific criteria? Use the filter option and make your search easy.

Monica. R

Tip of the Week: Task Sorting
I believe that sorting of tasks helps managing the activities in a better fashion. You might second it too . By default, the tasks are listed chronologically. However, you can sort the tasks either by its title, start date, end date, priority, created by and percentage completion. All you have to do is, click the Task Sorting option and select the required criteria. Few points to be noted about task sorting: This option is available in the Classic View only (within My Tasks, Tasks & Milestones section).Tip # 3 - Follow And Add Followers To Your Project Modules
Besides owning effective managers and quick-witted employees, you need to have supportive followers for accomplishing your project goals. Accompanying this note, today, lets run through a quick and easy tip on 'How to follow and add followers to your project activities?' . Follow the project activities all by yourself -Follow to get real-time milestone updates Milestones are nothing but your project goals, which can ultimately uplift your projects' quality to the next level. Now, users in the portalTip of the Week: Task Dependency (Duration in Hours)
I hope the tip on task dependency helped in understanding how it works in Zoho Projects. In a real-time, the successor task may or may not start on the predecessor's completion date. On either case, a project management tool should allow the users to set dependency between tasks. Ain't it? In Zoho Projects, the Task Duration in Hours option allows the users to set dependency between tasks that ends and starts on the same day. The Portal Owner and Admin role users can activate this option from theTip of the Week: Task Dependency
Task Dependency - a feature that allows the users to establish dependency / linking between tasks within the project. Points to be noted with respect to this feature: Task Dependency can be set only from the Dependency View section within the Tasks & Milestones module Tasks setup with duration (start & end date) will only be displayed in the Dependency View The supported dependency model is Finish to Start Dependency can be established only between the tasks in the same project A task can be dependentTip of the Week: Drag and Drop option in Calendar
As the thoughts flow in your mind, you plan the tasks, provide duration and assign users. While you go through the calendar later, you feel that a couple of tasks should needs to be postponed by a couple of days. Do you navigate to the Tasks & Milestones section and change the task duration? is the question I have for you. In case of YES, I would say that the task duration can be changed from the Calendar module itself. All you need to do is: Drag the task bar and Drop it on the required date. Note:
