==Column Headers==__NOEDITSECTION__
 
In addition to Summary customisations, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> allows users to customise the columns that are displayed in various data tables within the application including the IMSMA Navigation window and search results windows. Using this functionality, IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> users can choose the columns that display in these windows. Users can choose from virtually any data element for each item as well as several common fields from the “Location” data element set. Preferences for these settings are set on an individual basis only, but the settings persist to any client machine the individual logs into.
 
 
Because some column data takes more time to load than other data, information managers should be aware that system performance, if problematic, can be improved by reducing the use of CDFs, location fields and country structure fields. Additional columns can be specified for use when exporting data.
