Going Beyond the Basics

If you’ve already explored the default reports and taken some basic actions, it’s time to unlock the full power of the Action Center. This article shows you how to customize your workspace with grouping, filters, and columns.

👉 If you’re new, start with the General Overview of the Action Center first.

An item in Tuqqi is any task, document, message, or action that you manage inside a group. It’s the basic building block of your workflow. Each item can include fields like due date, status, labels, and more.

Group By: Organize How Tables Are Shown

Grouping determines how items are displayed:

  • By Group → one table per workgroup (team, project, client, etc.).

A group in Tuqqi is a shared space where you and your team can manage items together. Groups can represent teams, projects, clients, or any topic. Each group has its own members, permissions, and settings.

  • By Due Date → tables like Today, This Week, Next Week.

  • By Form, Status Color, Rating, or Item Members → flexible ways to visualize work.

Global Filters: Apply Across All Tables

Filters at the top apply everywhere in the Action Center:

  • Assigned User – “Me,” specific users, or entire teams.

  • Watchers – filter by followers of items.

  • Group – narrow results to specific groups.

  • Form – filter by item type (e.g. Client Request, Bug Report).

A form defines the structure of information inside an item. For example, a “Client Request” form might include fields for contact name, urgency, and notes. Forms help standardize how data is captured and tracked.

  • Status Color – red, orange, green, gray, or custom colors.

  • Due Date – fixed or dynamic (e.g. Past, Next 7 Days).

  • Linked Item – show only items connected to a project or client.

Columns: Choose What Information to Display

Each table shows fields (columns) that you can adjust. You can manage columns in two ways:

  • Use the Global Columns icon at the top of the Action Center to change columns across all tables.

  • Or use the Columns icon inside an individual table to customize it independently.

This lets you control what information is visible in your view, depending on the context of each report.

In-Table Filters: Narrow Down Inside One Table

For even more control, you can filter within a specific table:

  • Click the Filter icon in the table header.

  • Enter values under column titles.

  • Use the Clear icon to reset filters for that table.

Other Useful Table Features

  • Collapse/expand any table for focus.

  • Tables scroll horizontally if content is wide.

  • Each table shows up to 100 items → use filters to stay productive.

Summary

By combining grouping, filters, and column settings, you can shape the Action Center to your exact workflow. Whether you want a clean focus on today’s deadlines or a wide view across projects, these tools let you control the experience.
