| | #REDIRECT [[List Views]] |
| Β | |
| The default [[Object]] View displays all records in the Object. A custom View lets you determine which records are visible, which fields are displayed, and who can use that View. Such Views let you organize your data in a way that is meaningful, along with optional settings to customize and save views for reference or analysis.
| |
| Β | |
| ==About Views==
| |
| With your data loaded into the platform, you can start creating custom views to convey specific information you want your team to see. By selecting the fields you want and assigning a variety of filters, you can isolate key information quickly and easily.
| |
| Β | |
| Users can define new views, so an entire team or a select group can share information. Multiple Views compartmentalize information about an object for quick access to records.
| |
| Β | |
| Views offer [[Visibility]] controls that grant view and edit rights to specific Users, Teams or Roles.

| :* Use <tt>Tab</tt> and <tt>Shift+Tab</tt> to move between fields.
| |
| Β | |
| {{Warn|If you click a new row without pressing <tt>Enter</tt> first, your changes are not saved.}}
| |
| Β | |
