viewing a list of records. You can also define
 
 
 
the sequence in which the records are
 
 
 
displayed.
 
 
 
* Within the [[Universal Tracking Application]]
 
 
 
the '''Settings''' page allows you to define
 
 
 
the list view for Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3
 
 
 
as well as the Accounts and/or Contacts
 
 
 
sections on the Level 1 records (if the
 
 
 
Contacts/Accounts Standard Fields have been
 
 
 
enabled).
 
::* ''The '''List View''' defined for Level 2
 
 
 
will apply both to the list view on the Level 2
 
 
 
tab, and the list of associated Level 2s at the
 
 
 
bottom of a Level 1 record, if shown. Similarly
 
 
 
the Level 3 list view applies to the Level 3s
 
 
 
listed at the bottom of a Level 2 record.''
 
::* If '''Display as Tab''' has been enabled
 
 
 
for a Level 2 [[Type]] you can customize the
 
 
 
'''List View''' for the items listed on that
 
 
 
tab.
 
::* If you use the same Tab Label for more than
 
 
 
one Level 2 [[Type]] (thus grouping multiple
 
 
 
Types onto the same Tab) it will also use the
 
 
 
'''List View''' configured on the Settings
 
 
 
page, the same List View as the '''Other Level
 
 
 
2 Types''' tab.
 
* Within most other [[Applications]] you can
 
 
 
set the '''List View''' via the '''Settings'''
 
 
 
page.
 
::''Some list views contain special items and
 
 
 
cannot be configured, such as the list of
 
 
 
Applicants on an Opportunity within [[Sales
 
 
 
Tracking]].''
 
* When viewing the list of '''Contacts''' you
 
 
 
can set the '''List View''' by clicking on the
 
 
 
'''Edit View''' tab:<br>
 
::[[Image:ListViewC.PNG]]
 
:'''Note:''' changes here will affect the
 
 
 
Contacts List View throughout [[SmartSimple]]  
 
 
 
(UTA Contacts Tab, Search People, Sales
 
 
 
Tracking, etc.)
 
* The '''Accounts''' list view is fixed and
 
 
 
cannot be customized.
 
 
 
 
 
==Defining a List View==
 
Click into any '''List View''' shortcut to
 
 
 
display the list of fields available:
 
 
 
[[Image:Uta67.png]]
 
 
 
* ''Standard Fields'' are listed at the top of
 
 
 
the list, followed by [[Custom Field]]s.
 
* The '''#''' field displayed at the top of the
 
 
 
list will display a record counter (index) for
 
 
 
the items displayed.
 
* Click the check box on the left of each field
 
 
 
to include that field in the '''List View'''.
 
* Click the '''Hyperlink''' button to designate
 
 
 
a single field that will provide a drill-down
 
 
 
to the associated record.
 
* '''Text Align''' defines if the data should
 
 
 
be left, centred or right aligned in the
 
 
 
column.
 
* For numeric fields, you can display a total
 
 
 
at the bottom of each page by clicking the
 
 
 
'''Show Total''' check box.
 
:''The '''Total''' displayed at the bottom of
 
 
 
the column will have the same formatting
 
 
 
(example: #.##) as specified in the [[Custom
 
 
 
Field]] that is being totalled. If no
 
 
 
formatting is specified, the total will be
 
 
 
displayed to 1 decimal place.''
 
 
 
 
 
Once you have saved the field list you can set
 
 
 
the Display order.
 
 
 
'''Note:''' anytime you make changes to the
 
 
 
'''List View''' page as described above the
 
 
 
'''Field Order''' settings (described below)
 
 
 
will be reset and will need to be re-defined.
 
 
 
 
 
==Setting the Field Order==
 
 
 
Once you have selected the fields to be
 
 
 
displayed, you can reorder the fields in the
 
 
 
list view and if required create a formatting
 
 
 
[[Template|template]] specifically for this
 
 
 
list view.
 
 
 
From the '''List View''' page click the '''Set
 
 
 
Order''' button at the bottom.
 
 
 
The '''Data Column Order and Sorting''' window
 
 
 
is displayed:
 
 
 
[[Image:Uta102.png]]
 
 
To change the '''Display''' order:
 
* Click on the required field in the left
 
 
 
panel.
 
* Use the '''Up''' and '''Down''' arrows to
 
 
 
move the field.
 
* Once complete, click the '''Save''' button.
 
 
 
 
 
To change the '''Sort''' order:
 
* Choose the first field you wish to order by
 
 
 
in the right field combo box.
 
* Select '''Ascending''' or '''Descending''' in
 
 
 
the '''Order''' combo box.
 
* If required repeat this process for a second
 
 
 
and third field.
 
 
 
 
 
==Defining a List View Template==
 
 
 
You can customize the list view by clicking on
 
 
 
the '''Template''' button at the bottom of the
 
 
 
'''List View''' page.
 
Note: a basic understanding of HTML may be
 
 
 
required to make changes to the List View
 
 
 
Templates.
 
 
 
* The '''Header''' section can be used to
 
 
 
adjust the column headings. You can change the
 
 
 
formatting, as well as the column heading
 
 
 
displayed.
 
* The '''Columns''' section controls the
 
 
 
display of the actual record list view.
 
* The '''Order Clause''' allows you to manage
 
 
 
the sequence of records in a more complex way
 
 
 
than on the '''Set Order''' page.
 
::''For example, if you are trying to arrange
 
 
 
your sort order based on a field that has an
 
 
 
integer value the sort may not work properly if
 
 
 
the data is stored as string. To make this a
 
 
 
numeric value to sort do the following:
 
:::* In the list view template go to the
 
 
 
section of 'Order Clause' and find the field
 
 
 
that your looking for based on custom field id.
 
:::* Change the value from ''cf_967517 desc''
 
 
 
to ''tbl_967517.valuestr*1 desc''; which
 
 
 
converts it to a numeric value now.
