When you have created a new layout, it is time to customize it. Personalize the layout for the main cards and archives to match your organization's information needs.

Considerations

Before customizing a layout, determine who the intended users are.

• What do they need at their fingertips?
• Do they need all default fields and tabs, or should you remove something?
• Do they require additional tabs?
• What is the logical order of fields?

Note

You can edit the default layout, however, you cannot edit the default control settings and you cannot re-assign the layout to a user group.

Undo changes

If you need to revert to an earlier version of the screen, you can access the following options from the Task button ():

• Reset to factory settings: This option discards all changes and resets the layout to the default version provided by SuperOffice.

• Restore tabs: This option reinstates any tabs that have been previously removed.

• Discard draft: This option discards all unsaved changes and reverts the layout to the most recently published version.

Delete layout

When a user-group-based layout is deleted, users in that group see the default (system) layout.

1. Select the layout in the Layouts list.
2. Click Delete.
