List View Designer
The List View Designer makes it easy for you to design and apply your own view of a selected List View. This involves selecting the fields (the columns) you want to see, the order in which you want to see them and how much of them you want to see (the column width).
You open the List View Designer by clicking on the Wrench  Advanced View button. Once designed, you can select which List View to use, by simply selecting it from the drop-down list of currently available List Views.
The system will apply the same filter which is applied against the base List View you used as the starting point.

The fields for the List View design, where you provide the name of the List View, who created it and if it can be shared or not.
- Shared views can be selected by other users with the 'List View Edit' role when they want to define a view.
- Global views are applied to users who do not have the 'List View Edit' role. Users who have the 'List View Edit' role may specify a custom List View as their own default view.
