# Columns

In data tables, "columns" refer to the vertical divisions of a table that categorize and display specific types of information, more specifically [dimensions](/managing-advertising-accounts/modules/cross-module-components/data-tables/data.md#dimensions) and [metrics](/managing-advertising-accounts/modules/cross-module-components/data-tables/data.md#metrics). Each column represents a particular attribute or field of the data, such as 'Campaign name', 'Sales', 'ACoS', etc. The arrangement of these columns determines how data is presented and organized within the table, making it an essential aspect of data analysis and visualization within the app context. Columns help in structuring the data, making it easier for you to understand and interact with the information.

### Selecting columns

To adjust the columns displayed in the current view:

* [x] Click the "Columns" button in the [actions bar](/managing-advertising-accounts/modules/cross-module-components/data-tables/actions-bar.md). This action will open a menu or panel where you can manage the visibility of different columns.
* [x] In the columns menu, you'll find a list of available columns, each accompanied by a checkbox. To include a column in your data table, simply check its corresponding box. Similarly, uncheck a box to hide that column from the table.
* [x] After selecting your desired columns, click the "Apply" button. This will update the data table to reflect your new column configuration, showing only the columns you have chosen.

#### Additional options

* **Reset**: If you wish to discard your selection and revert to the previous column configuration, click the "Reset" button. This action will undo any changes you've made to the column selection.
* **Select All / Deselect All**: For convenience, the column menu also includes "Select All" and "Deselect All" options. "Select All" will automatically check all available columns, while "Deselect All" will uncheck them, allowing you to quickly modify the column visibility in bulk.
