Configuring a View

Top Previous Next

Before you start, review the existing views and determine why you need a sub-view. For example, your organization includes a Finance Department and rather than working with the All Goals View, they prefer to have a sub-set of the data filtered by records unique to Finance. This means the Finance Department will either enter or import goals and only work with that sub-set of data on a day-to-day basis but still have access to all other views. Another benefit in reviewing the existing Views before creating a sub-view, is you may find that one of the existing Views meets your needs and in this case you can Clone that view and modify it rather than Adding a New View.

 

Configuring a View is achieved by:

Right-clicking for example in the Outline View

Selecting View Configuration
