List Views will always display the records of Object you’re on. For example if you click on Accounts, you will see a List View containing Account records. If you click on Opportunities, you will see Opportunity records, etc.

List View Navigation

Recently Viewed

Note

Pro Tip! When you’re first getting starting in Salesforce (or if you’ve just started working with records of a new type) your List View will always default to Recently Viewed.

There will be nothing to see if you haven’t viewed at any records yet! 😱 Don’t panic!

Be sure to use the little down arrow next to Recently Viewed to navigate to another List View to start seeing records (see #1 in the image above)

1 - Select a List View & Pin your Favorite

Select a list view from the drop-down. Pin a list with the (pin icon 📌 ) to set it as your default.

2 - Modify a List View

Modify a list view using the List View Controls menu (gear icon ⚙ )

You not have access to modify public List Views (the ones all users can view). See https://ceceuofu.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPD/pages/2479259649/Salesforce+-+List+View+Walkthrough#Clone-a-List-View

3 - Create New records from a List View

To save yourself a few clicks, try using the New button to Create a record directly from a List View!

4 - See List View Filters

See the criteria for which records are displayed by using the little funnel icon.

5 - Change List View Display

Change how the data is displayed! Different views work well for certain types of data.

Kanban Settings Error

Warning

If you get this error:

“In order for this Kanban view to load, the list view's owner has to configure Kanban Settings for it.”

Change your Display as settings back to Table.

6 - Search a List View

Find the data you need with a quick search!

Searchable Fields

When you click into the Search text box, a bubble will appear telling you if any fields are not searchable within the List View.

Search Wildcards

  • Use an asterisk (*) to find items that match zero or more characters at the middle or end of your search.

  • Use a question mark (?) to find items that match only one character at the middle or end of your search.
