Custom Views for Lists

Creating a New Custom View

Custom Views can be created from the Accounts List, Activities List, Orders List, and Job List. This example is for a Custom View from the Accounts List to find customers that have the Alert box checked:

  1. Click on Accounts
  2. Click on Accounts List
  3. Click on the drop-down arrow to select your view
  4. Click on +View Filter at the bottom of the selector box
  5. Will open the Custom View Builder window
  6. Name your Custom View. (I would suggest short names due to the size of the View Selector column)
  7. Click the Add Condition button
  8. Click the Field Selector drop-down arrow to select the field to use to filter your list. In this example, we are selecting the “Account: Alert” field with a condition of True
  9. Click the And button to add another filter. (In our example, we only want to see Active Accounts)
  10. Click the Field Selector drop-down arrow to select the next field to filter and choose “Account: Active” with a condition of True
  1. Click OK when all filters have been added
  2. The grid should now reflect only the accounts that meet the criteria in the Custom View you just created.

NOTE: If you click into a customer account and want to get back to this same list view, you will want to use your Browser back button and not the Account List Breadcrumb on the ServiceMonster screen.

Choosing Columns

Once you have the account list in the grid, you can use the Choose Columns option to select the columns that you want to show in your grid:

  1. It will open the Custom View Builder window and allow you to edit the filters.

Using the Custom Views
