My Accounts Overview
My Accounts is the central hub for accessing and managing all accounts available to the user, which are listed on the My Accounts screen. From My Accounts, users can take advantage of a full range of information, including the following:
- Search for accounts based on basic account profile attributes
- Save a search for a specific set of records with a custom view
- Organize accounts into lists
- Designate the sort order for records
- Indicate which columns should display on a custom view
- Select the blue hyperlinked account name to open the account screen
Vault CRM maintains the last view and territory selected by the user in the My Accounts screen. These selections are stored in the preferences__v object, allowing users to maintain these selections across sessions.
Selecting a territory from My Accounts displays that territory and all territories below it in the Territory Hierarchy. For information on the All Accounts option in the Territory drop-down menu, see Visibility of Accounts and Territories.
The All Territories option is not available on the Browser platform. A specific territory must always be selected.
The columns displayed in Table view are based on the selected filter and rely on the online configuration for the Account Views and Account Lists available in the filter. List view displays a static set of fields. The actions available are based on online configuration and user permissions.
Not all features are available on all platforms. For a list of available platforms for each feature, see Platform Functionality.
