Filters allow you to customize your view, displaying only certain tasks according to different selection criteria.
They are available in project views (What, When and Who) and in multi-project views (Planning, Gantt and Calendars).
Click on the “+ Filter” icon in the top right-hand corner of the various views, below the user drop-down menu. This gives you access to the available filters, so you can view your projects as you wish. You can select multiple filters to refine your view.
Simple filters
You can filter on the following items:
- Filter by member: choose one or more project member(s) or tasks without member (no member assigned to the task) or with member(s) (at least one member assigned)
- Filter by smart-tags: display the tasks assigned to members of a smart-tag
- Filter by status: not completed, completed, late (whose end date has passed), In time (today’s date is comprised between start and end dates, To come (whose start date has not yet passed), scheduled, not scheduled, milestone, not milestone
- Filter by label: one of the labels used in the project, without label or with label(s)
Note 1: filters are saved when you navigate from one view to another, or when you quit the project and then come back to it.
Filters in the Multi-projects views (Schedule, Gantt, and Calendars)
When you arrive in one of the multi-project views, you can select one or more projects to display (if no project is selected). This allows you to have a more efficient display. You can then modify this selection with the filters.
- Filter by project: choose one or more project(s) to display
- Filter by member: choose one or more member(s)
- Filter by smart-tags: display the tasks assigned to members of a smart-tag
- Filter by status: not completed, completed, late (whose end date has passed), In time, To come (whose start date has not yet passed), scheduled, not scheduled, milestone, not milestone
- Filter by label: one of the labels used in the project, without label or with label(s)
Note 2: the filters are saved when you navigate from one view to another, or when you exit multi-project mode and then return to it.

Like simple filters, advanced filters are available in both project and multi-project views.

To do this, click on the toggle:
Save, modify or create a filter
Before validating and applying your filters, you can modify and/or delete them by clicking on the buttons to the right of the previews.

- Click on “Save and apply“: you can name the filter selection and save it as a favorite for future use.
To modify an active filter, click on the pencil on the “Custom filter” button in the top right-hand corner.
