How to manage columns in Evalato

Columns

Evalato lets you choose which columns are visible in your lists, reorder them, and adjust their display to suit how you work. Column management is available across Registrations, Entries, Rounds, Judges, Votes, Results, Awards, Lists, and Emails.

Show and hide columns

Click the vertical Columns button on the right side of your screen to open the column panel. Check or uncheck any column to show or hide it in your list. The available columns vary depending on the section you are in.

Reorder columns

In the Columns panel, drag and drop any column using the grid icon next to its name to change the order in which columns appear in your list.

Pin a column

Click the three-dot menu on any column header and select Pin Column to keep that column fixed in place while you scroll horizontally. You have three options:

  • No pin — removes any pinning from the column.
  • Pin left — pins the column to the left side of the table.
  • Pin right — pins the column to the right side of the table.

Resize columns

From the three-dot menu, select Autosize This Column to fit that column to its content, or Autosize All Columns to adjust every column at once.

Reset columns

To restore the default column layout, open the three-dot menu on any column header and select Reset Columns.

Group records

Available in Registrations and Entries, the Columns panel also includes a Row Groups section, which lets you organize your list by a shared field — for example, grouping registrations by Status or entries by Category.

To group records:

  1. Open the Columns panel.
  2. Find the field you want to group by in the column list.
  3. Drag it into the Row Groups box.

Your list will collapse into groups based on that field. You can drag more than one field into Row Groups to create nested groups. To remove a grouping, drag the field back out of the Row Groups box, or clear it from the box directly.

Aggregate values

Available in Registrations and Entries, the Values section lets you calculate totals and other statistics across your list — either overall or within each group set up in Row Groups.

To add a value aggregation:

  1. Open the Columns panel.
  2. Drag the field you want to calculate into the Values box. Note that not every field can be added here — fields like ID and Name, for example, can't be dragged into Values.
  3. Evalato applies a default aggregation based on the field type. Click the aggregation to choose a different calculation. Available options: sum, avg, max, min, count, first, and last.

You can drag more than one field into Values to see multiple calculations side by side. Remove a value by clicking the × next to it in the Values box.

Use Pivot Mode

Available in Registrations and Entries, Pivot Mode turns your Row Groups and Values into a summarized pivot table — useful when you want a clean statistical view instead of a full record-by-record list.

To use Pivot Mode:

  1. Open the Columns panel.
  2. Set up your Row Groups and Values as described above.
  3. Toggle Pivot Mode on, at the top of the panel.

With Pivot Mode on, the field list becomes disabled (your Row Groups and Values selections drive the table instead), and a Column Labels section appears. Drag a field here to break your Values out across columns by that field — for example, group by Status in Row Groups, put Category in Column Labels, and see a count for each status broken down by category.

Toggle Pivot Mode off at any time to return to the standard list with your Row Groups and Values still applied.
