Manage Lists Page

The Manage Lists page shows the filtered lists to which you have access for a specific record type. For each list, the page shows the list type (Public, Private, System, or Role Specific), the name of the user who created the list, the name of the user who last modified the list, and the date on which the list was last modified.

You can filter the set of lists that is displayed. The following predefined sets of lists are available in a drop-down list in the Manage Lists page:

  • All Lists. All of the lists to which you have access for this record type. This set of lists is shown when you first open the page.
  • My Lists. The lists that you created for the record type, including your private lists and any public or role-specific lists that you created.
  • System Lists. The lists that are available for the record type in the standard application.
  • Lists in My List Order. The lists that you see in the picklist of lists in List pages and in the set of predefined lists in Lookup windows for the record type.
  • Role Specific Lists. The role-specific lists to which you have access for the record type.
  • Public Lists. The public lists that were created for the record type.
  • Private Lists. The private lists that you and other users created for the record type in your current user language.

    This predefined set of lists is available only if your user role has the Manage Private Lists privilege. Typically, the Manage Private Lists privilege is given to administrators only. For information about the considerations that apply when editing other users' private lists, see About Editing Private Lists Created by Other Users.

NOTE: Multiple lists with the same name can exist for a single record type. For example, you might create a private list that has the same name as an existing public list or role-specific list for the record type. In that case, both of the lists with the same name are shown when you view all lists for the record type in the Manage Lists page. Similarly, multiple users can create private lists with the same name; so, if your user role has the Manage Private lists privilege, then the Manage Lists page might show multiple private lists that have the same name, but were created by different users.

For some of the predefined sets of lists, you can use the quick filter fields to refine the set of lists.

NOTE: You can open the Manage Lists page by clicking the Manage Lists link in the Homepage for the record type, or by selecting Manage Lists from the Menu button in a List page for the record type. For more information about accessing list management options from List pages, see Working with Lists.

From the Manage Lists page, you can perform the tasks shown in the following table.
