In Detail view, the left side of the Account Details screen contains related lists, for example, Addresses or Medical Inquiries. The right side displays the sections, fields, and layout defined by the account layout. Actions and operation buttons are available in the tabs.
If users are unable to access record detail pages, verify the country__v field on the user's user__sys object is populated. The country__v field is required for all users.

Setting a Different Default View for Accounts
By default, when a user navigates to an account in Vault CRM, the account detail screen displays information about the account’s calls, territories, multichannel activities, and more. However, this information may not be the most relevant for all end users.
To allow users to view customized account information after navigating to an account, admins can configure one of the following options to display instead of the Account Detail Page:
- Account Timeline - Displays a chronological history of all activities involving an account. This enables users to view an account's history, including any calls, medical events, or Approved Emails they have received.
- X-Pages Account Profile - Displays account information, for example, a combined view of an account’s calls, medical inquiries, and sent emails. Content creators can customize the X-Page to meet end users’ needs.
- X-Pages KOL Profile - Displays KOL Profile information, for example, medical events, clinical trials, and emails sent to the KOL. Content creators can customize the X-Page to meet end user’s needs.
If an X-Pages KOL Profile is not configured as the default display, the default display for accounts is determined by the default_account_profile__v Veeva Setting:
- For Commercial Vault CRM, populate the setting with either 1 or 3
- For Medical Vault CRM, populate the setting with either 0 or 1

Formula Fields
Formula fields are evaluated on the server and synchronized to the device as text values. If any data used in the calculation for a formula field is changed, the updated field value is applied the next time the user syncs.
When a Formula field value changes, the change is synced when the systemmodstamp is updated on the record.
