Add Sections to the View

Configure the Properties view to add a section that lets you group certain attributes that appear on a page in meaningful ways. For example, all the organizational breakdown structure fields (Department, Location, and so on) can appear in a separate OBS section on the project properties page.

Follow these steps:

1. Open Administration, and from Studio, click Objects.
2. Click the name of the object.
3. Click Views.
4. In the Category column, locate the Properties view and click one of the following links from the Setup column in that row:
   • [Layout:Create]. Adds sections to the properties page a user uses to create an instance initially for the object.
   • [Layout:Edit]. Adds sections to the properties page a user uses to change the created instance of the object.
5. In the property layout, click Create Sections.
6. Complete the following fields:

   Parent

   Displays the name of the parent page for which you are creating sections.

   Section Names

   Defines the section names for the page for a view.

7. Save your changes.
