How to show field on list view only if they are certain values

I have a system setup where fields are either pass or fail for equipment inspections. I would like to display only the failed fields on list view. Is this something I can do?

HI Thomas,
There is no out of the box way to achieve this. This should be possible with custom code.

HI Thomas,
You should be able to do this by creating a new list view and set filter there that the specific field with value fail should only be displayed

See https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/lex_customization/lex_customization_list for more details.

Hi Thomas,

I hope you are trying to filter the records based on the some field values . If yes then you have to use the list view filter.

Note : You can't controll the field colums dynamically based on field value.

Is it possible to make a suggestion to allow us to dynamically display colums based on field value because it sounds like that is what I am looking to do

How about we do that! As a purchaser, we need an item that is financially savvy, never-ending, subjective, and a tried and true brand best TIG welder under $2000 (https://protigwelders.com/best-tig-welder-under-2000/). You should have the option to do this by making another rundown view and set channel there that the particular field with esteem come up short ought to just be shown.
