GAS Customized Columns and Preview Pane
To make it easier to find accounts, Admins can customize what information displays in the Global Account Search results screen. For the Vault platform, admins can specify which columns display. For the iPad, admins can specify which fields display in the preview window for a selected account.
An admin can add the Do Not Call field to the Preview pane in GAS for iPad users by adding the API name of the Do Not Call field to the list of fields in the GAS_PREVIEW_FIELDS Veeva Message. When an end user views accounts in GAS on iPad, they can quickly see which accounts are not available for calls.

To configure this feature, ensure Configuring Accounts is complete.
To define which columns or preview pane fields display, populate the following Veeva Messages with a semicolon-delimited list of the fields using this format: objectapiname.field1apiname; objectapiname.field2apiname;
- GAS_ONLINE_COLUMNS - Defines columns for the Vault platform; supports fields on the Account and Address objects
- GAS_PREVIEW_FIELDS - Defines preview fields for the iPad platform; supports fields on the Account object only
For example, account__v.specialty_1__v;account__v.credentials__v;. Do not include any manual line breaks when specifying the fields.
Formatted Name always displays as the first column or preview pane field, followed by the fields defined in the Veeva Message.
The Vault platform supports up to 15 custom columns. If more than 15 columns are defined in the Veeva Message, only the first 15 display in the GAS results screen. This limit does not apply to the iPad platform. Fields only display if the user has permission to that field.
