Custom Views

Conga Advantage Platform application allows you to save your filtered view and set it as the default view, so there is no need to reselect the filters every time you open the grid (list) view.
Note: The system displays a lock icon next to each out-of-the-box (OOTB) view on grid listing pages to indicate it is protected. You cannot edit or delete these system-defined views.

Saving a Custom View

If you create a custom view, you can save it for future sessions, and you can share this custom view with other users.

  1. Log in to the Conga Advantage Platform as an admin user.
  2. Go to the page containing the grid view you want to filter.
  3. Customize your view by applying filter criteria:
    • Filtering Options: Use the available filtering options to set criteria for your view. This might involve selecting specific fields, setting conditions, and choosing values for those conditions. For more details, see Filtering Records in the Grid View.
    • Managing View Settings: Apply the view setting to control which columns to display in the grid view. For more details, see Custom View Settings.
    • Rows per Page and Page Number: Specify the number of records to see per page using the Rows per Page option. Enter the page number in the designated box to set the default page when applying the view.
    • Sorting: Apply column sorting for better navigation.
  4. Go to the dropdown menu next to the search bar and click Create New View. The Save View popup appears.
  5. Enter a name and description for your view.
  6. You can save your view as either Private or Public:
    • Private: Select this to restrict the search view to yourself only. It remains private and accessible only to you.
    • Public: Select this to permit others to access and use your search view. Your search view will be made public, allowing others to view and use the same search criteria.
    Note: The application restricts Non-Admin users from creating public views. They can only view the views created by Admins and themselves, and they can edit or delete only their private views.
  7. Click Save to save your filtered view.
  8. To access your saved view, click the dropdown menu to the left of the search bar.
  9. Click the More () icon for the view from the list and select Set as default.

The grid view updates and displays records based on the saved filter criteria. The system retains the applied filter, showing it in the grid view when you return after switching screens.
