Remember Selected Filters
When this is on, the filters you set on list pages (search text, status picks, date ranges, assignee filters, category selections, sort order) are saved automatically and restored the next time you open that page.
To turn it on or offEvery list page with a filter toolbar - CRM, Accounting, Support, Recruitment, Projects, People, Admin, Payroll, and more.
