Product Database - Grid Display Options for Custom Fields

A new enhancement has been introduced to the product database that provides additional options for displaying custom fields in the
records grid. This gives administrators greater control over how product information is presented and organized on the records page.

When creating or editing a product database field, two new options are now available in the Select a Grid Display dropdown.

 

Available Grid Display Options

The following options have been added:

  • Display in Grid

  • Display in Grid with Sort

 

Display in Grid

When this option is selected, the custom field will be displayed as a column on the Product Database Records page.

 

Display in Grid with Sort

When this option is selected:

  • The custom field will be displayed as a column on the product database records page.

  • The field will also be available as a sorting option, allowing users to sort records based on the values in that field.

 

Alert
Unsupported Field Types
Note: The Display in Grid and Display in Grid with Sort options are not supported for the following field types:
  • Checkbox

  • Image

  • Document
