titleNotes about Views
  • Personal and Summary view are always available. Changing your Personal view has no effect on other users' Personal views.
  • Quick Edit views let you edit records from the table view, without opening the record form. See Quick Edit.
  • Admins can create views and apply them to teams of users, making them available in the drop-down or the default view for that table. See Views and Permissions.
  • Saved searches can replace the current view with a view defined by the search. This is particularly useful when viewing hierarchical data, as different subtables often have different optimal views of relevant fields.
  • Views can include color coding of rows based on a choice field which can be populated by rules. See Row Coloring for more information on setting up color coding logic.
  • You can choose whether clicking a field in a view opens the record for edit or view only. 
  • If a view includes the Links field, clicking it will open the Edit Record form for the record linked to the selected record.
