Using the Customize link in windows

Windows that contain a Customize or Customize Fields and Filter link allow you to change the following information:

•The number of items displayed per page in the window

•Which columns of information are displayed in Units View windows

•Which columns are included in a filter from a Units View window (available from the Customize Fields and Filter link only)

By clicking the Customize link, you can also show units that have been hidden in a Units View window.

NOTE: If you are in a Units View window, the link is displayed as “Custom Fields and Filter” and this window contains additional filtering options. On any other window, the link is displayed as “Customize”. The term “Customize link” is used throughout this document to refer to both links.
