you can not have a blank column per say. The column must first be defined before it can be displayed. You can create your own user defined field and then display this column. 

This a database not a spreadsheet in a database the fields must first be defined with a name and a type of field before they can be used.

  1. From Gantt Chart, Write click.
  2. Select column 
  3. Select User define
  4. Select MPS Activity ID  - Click Apply.Click Edit Column to rename such as Notes, Basis etc..
  5. Go to Gantt Chart, On MPS Activity ID Column, start writing what you wish too. MPS Activity ID was similar to Text in MS Project.

Sorry I assumed that you already have the user defined column NEW, you can add this column by clicking enterprise then user defined fields click Add and select the data type.

I believe blank column mean userdefined field.



Click View--Columns and click ’User Defined’ and show whatever type of data you going to store from the predefined column of define your own.
