How can I share and manage saved searches list with other job roles?

From the Workspace List tab, you can share and manage saved searches with other roles. You can set saved searches as shared with everyone, with specific user roles, or with no one.

To view and assign a default saved search for a role, you must fulfill all the following conditions:

  • Have the ZCA_MANAGE_INTERACTIVE_LISTS_SAVED_SEARCH privilege so that you can view the Set Defaults tab

  • Permission to view the object underlying the saved search to be assigned (for example, to assign an account default saved search, you must have permission to view the account)

Note: The search results returned might differ for each user as it depends on the role each user has.

Here are the steps to help you manage and share saved searches with other roles for your selected business object:

  1. From the Manage Saved Searches page, select the Workspace List tab.
