What are the Query Columns options used for?

The traffic tables in the database contain a large number of possible columns. To simplify query forms, rarely used attributes can be masked out so that they don't appear in selection lists.

To change which attributes are shown, select the Query Columns option at the top of the page. In the table, only attributes with a check mark next to their name will be shown. To show an attribute click on the box next to it's name so that a check mark is shown. To hide an attribute click on the box to remove the check mark. Click on the Submit button at the bottom of the form to complete the changes.
