M365 Changelog: Microsoft Lists and SharePoint Lists: column settings in Grid view

MC234414 – We are providing Microsoft Lists and SharePoint lists owners and members with new capabilities in Lists Grid view (previously Quick Edit).

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 68714.

When this will happen

• Targeted Release (organization): mid-January through early February 2021.
• Standard Release: early February through early March 2021.

How this will affect your organization

The Lists “Grid” view (previously Quick Edit) will now allow users to pin a column to the filter pane, format the column, show/hide columns, and hide their column(s). Before this update, users were required to exit Grid view to accomplish these common tasks. 

What you need to do to prepare

You might want to notify your users about this new capability and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
