Views

---

The following are general recommendations for view naming:

Name a new view using a prefix that identifies your company. For example, a new view created for ABC Incorporated could be named ABC Opportunity Detail - Tasks View.
View names should be meaningful. Avoid naming new views by adding a number suffix to an existing name (for example, Opportunity List View 2). If the view differs because it is read only, then indicate this in your view name (for example, ABC Opportunity List View - Read Only).
Initial-capitalize view names, for example, Opportunity List View rather than opportunity list view.

In addition, note the conventions in Table 5 for specific view types.
