# Configure Columns

As of **July 18, 2024**, PEARS allows users to customize which columns appear in module list views and the order in which they display. Column configurations are saved per user and do not affect other users.

## How to Configure Columns

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Open Column Settings

Navigate to any module list view and click the **Configure Columns** button to open the column settings panel.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Show or Hide Columns

Select or unselect the checkbox next to each column name to show or hide it. Some columns are required and cannot be hidden — these appear as lighter blue checkboxes.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Reorder Columns

Drag and drop columns using the hamburger icon (three horizontal lines) next to each column name to change the display order.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Reset to Default

Click **Reset columns to default** to return to the original PEARS column settings for the module.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## New Column Options

### ID Column

An **ID** column is now available across all modules. When enabled, it displays the PEARS record ID number for each row.

### Indirect Activities Columns

Two new columns are available in the Indirect Activities module:

* **Total Unique Reach** — Available for both SNAP-Ed and Extension organizations
* **Total New Reach** — Available for SNAP-Ed organizations only

**TIP:** Column customization is per-user only. Changes you make do not affect other users' views, and no automatic changes are made to existing column configurations.
{% endhint %}
