System Administrator Scenarios › How to Create a Custom Object › Add Attributes to the Object List Column View

Add Attributes to the Object List Column View

Add attributes to the list column view of the object to define the sorting of the attributes that are displayed as columns on list pages. For example, you can sort the list of projects primarily by the Project Name attribute in ascending order.

You can add up to four attributes that sort a List Column view. The attributes can be user-defined, default, or both.

Follow these steps:

1. Open Administration, and from Studio, click Objects.
2. Click the name of the object.
3. Click Views.

   The list of views appears.

4. Next to the List Column view, click the Layout link.

   The list column layout page appears.

5. Specify the primary sort column in the Column Sorting section, by selecting an attribute in the First Field row.
6. To indicate the direction of the sort, select Ascending or Descending.
7. To indicate additional sort columns, select attributes for the remaining fields in the Column Sorting section.
8. Save your changes.
