Views are a set of data that typically make up a list. In other words, Views are sets of columns that can be configured to contain the information required by the user.

Views may vary from workspace to workspace making it possible to apply views that match the work situation. As such, a workspace intended for AdOps may have a view that show columns with information about campaigns etc. while a workspace intended for creative produces may be configured to show columns regarding sizes, production deadlines etc.

Selecting Views from the menu opens this drawer:

HINT: The views menu drawer can be adjusted in the height so it is possible to see the user interface in the background and in that way see changes made on the fly when adding and/or rearranging the columns

In the left window you see a is a list of all views, which user groups that they are shared with and the name of the user name who created the view. Further these is a modification date and a modified by user name.

In the right side of the drawer, there is a split window which shows two columns:

The left column is a list of all available columns in the X1 database. These vary from system to system. The list is sorted alphabetically.

The right column is the view list which shows the columns that has been selected to be included in the view. The closer a column is to the top of the list, the furter left it appears in the workspace.
