Adding new columns to your pipeline is a key step in customizing Streak to fit your needs. Our new formatting options will make your columns more precise and easier to read. When 100 is actually $100.00, or Sept 24 is actually 24/9/2015, we’re happy to say we now have you covered.
Formatting can be added to Columns of type: Date (including Magic Columns!), Formula, or Free Form. First, let’s find the “Format” option in the dropdown of a column we’d like to format:
