Personalize Your Key Infolets

You can personalize actionable infolets from the Actions menu. For example, you can edit infolet titles and views, move, hide, or show specific infolets and refresh the data displayed.

If enabled by your application administrator, you can personalize the layout, record count, filters, and actions at the record level for each of your infolets.

Configure Layout of Actionable Infolets

Once enabled, the Configure menu item from the Actions menu becomes available so that you can personalize the actionable infolets to suit your requirements. For example, you might want to change the layout and size of columns, as well as the locations of the fields being displayed. You might want to use your own saved searches as view filters or hide some of the quick actions that might not be relevant to you.

Here's how to modify the layout of the My Opportunities actionable infolet:

  1. Navigate to the actionable infolet that you want to modify.

  2. Go to My Opportunities, and select Configure from the Actions menu.

    The My Opportunities actionable infolet screen is displayed with the predefined fields selected.

  3. From the Layout tab, select the attributes that you want to edit from the respective drop-down lists.

  4. Set and adjust the two column table widths in percentage terms by sliding your mouse along the Column Width ruler.

  5. Make the changes that you want to the attribute and select another attribute to edit, if required.

  6. In the Drill Down Field, select the item that you want to use for drilling down to the detail page of an opportunity.

    Tip: If Dynamic Choice List fields are added to the Actionable Infolet, then the drill down is automatically enabled.

    This table shows the field names and associated attribute names that you can select for drill-down for each of the actionable infolets:

Change the Record Count Display for Actionable Infolets

You can also change the predefined number of records to display on the infolet. By default, 10 records display. You can change the default to 10, 20, 25, or 30, as required.

Here's how to modify record counts for an actionable infolet:

  1. From the actionable infolet that you want to modify, for example, My Opportunities, select Configure from the Actions menu.

    The My Opportunities actionable infolet screen is displayed.

  2. From the Record Count tab, select the number of records that you want to display on the infolet from the drop-down list.

  3. Click Save and Close.

Modify Filters

Filtering reduces the number of searches required to view any outstanding items that might require attention. For example, you can choose to select or hide predefined filters that you want to make available on the actionable infolets.

Predefined saved searches are available for selection. However, any custom saved searches that you create must include Record Set values selected for either any records that you own or for records where you're on the team. In addition, when saving your saved search, you must select the Run Automatically check box to run the search automatically when your saved search is loaded. Otherwise, the custom saved search won't display in the available filters list in the Configure UI for your actionable infolet.

You can show or hide filters, rearrange filters, and add custom filters. You can multiselect and double-click filters in the Available list to move them to the Selected list. However, you must select at least one filter for the actionable infolet filter list.

This table lists filters that you can modify.
