When reviewing project details on each of these boards, you can save custom filter sets. This means you can set up filters that provide you with the detailed project information you’re regularly reviewing, give them a custom name, and come back to them when you need to, without having to manually clear and re-filter your data each time.

Having the information you need ready at your fingertips will help you get into your work faster, so you can get on with the business of designing and successfully deliver your projects.

  • Use the Project manager filter if you are wanting to see all jobs that one particular project manager is managing in Synergy. This filter is a great way to keep track of what project managers are working on and responsible for.
