Grid components
Key components of a grid in CiiRUS One:
Rows: Rows list data associated with a particular record horizontally (from left to right). A record is a set of data associated with a particular person, place, item, or point in time. For example, a person's name, departure and arrival dates, and location would be considered a record or part of a record for a particular reservation.
Columns: Columns list data of a specific category vertically (from top to bottom). At the top of each column is the column title or category. Columns can be added, removed, reordered, and resized.
Scroll Bar: The scroll bar allows you to browse up and down the rows in the grid. Some grids will have a scroll bar at the bottom that will let you scroll across the columns.
Data Fields: Data fields are the individual cells that hold a single piece of data, such as a date or a first name.
Search Filters: Search filters are blank spaces found at the top of the columns.

Adding and removing columns
The Field Chooser is a convenient way to customize your grids and add the data you need. To use the Field Chooser, click on the "Field Chooser" icon above the grid.
A list of all available columns will appear. To add a column to the grid, click the checkbox next to the column name. To remove a column from the grid, uncheck the checkbox next to the column name.
