Creatio can display data in app sections and on some pages as lists. A list is an index of records. Each record contains a set of fields (columns). By default, Creatio displays list data as a simple table. Each record corresponds to a single row.

The list displays emails and URLs as links. Click an URL to open the web page in a new tab. Click an email to open the new email window of the default email client. You can display some other values in the list as links to enable users to open Creatio records quickly. For example, you can display the value of the Owner field as a link to enable users to open the page of the record owner from the list.

Users can customize the appearance of a list, its field group, and the data sorting parameters individually (Fig. 1).

  • System administrators and users that have permissions to the “List setup for all users” (“CanCreateDefaultGridSettings” code) system operation can save their list settings as default settings for all users. To do this, click in the top right → Save list settings for all users If a user has custom list settings applied, Creatio does not override them. However, it applies the saved settings when a user resets to default settings.
