Set List



The Set List displays the results of the filter search.





Click a set name to view its details and/or modify them, or click the Set Members content link to view the members of the set. For information about set details, see Creating a Set and Adding and Deleting Set Members.




Displaying Set Members as a List



While viewing the Set Members content link of a set, the user can display the set members as a regular SmartOffice list. The benefit of this feature is that it displays all of the standard buttons, Menu options, tabs and content links for that record type.

  • Select Menu > Go to List.
