Administering Table Views for the Organization

As an organization administrator, you can create and edit table views that appear in the view drop-down list on Windchill tables appearing within your organization context. Table views determine the way information is displayed in the table, for example, which columns appear and their order.

View a list of the table views by navigating to a table and select Customize from the view drop-down list. The following table appears:

If you select the new view icon

and create a new view, as an organization administrator, you can share the view with all users in your organization by selecting the Share with all users checkbox. If the checkbox is not selected, then the table view is visible only to you. You can also select or clear this checkbox when you edit a view. For more information, including descriptions of all icons shown in the window above, see Customizing Table Views and Creating and Editing New Table Views. Save and Save As actions are also available for table views. For more information, see Saving Table Views.
