Purpose Statement

Saved Views allow users to customize how permit records are displayed in the Permit List and save those configurations for future use.

A Saved View can retain filters, criteria, column selections, column order, sorting, pagination, and visibility settings. This allows users to quickly return to frequently used Permit List configurations without recreating the same settings each time.

Background Information

The Permit List uses the updated Saved Views experience consistent with the Saved Views functionality available in the Hydrant List.

Saved Views can include:

• View name
• Available filters
• Filter criteria
• Visibility
• Permission for other users to apply changes to the view
• Default pagination
• Column selection
• Column order
• Sorting

The Saved Views dropdown organizes available views into the following categories:

• Favorite
• Predefined
• Custom
• Shared with Me

Selecting a Saved View applies its stored configuration to the Permit List.

Required Permissions

The provided feature documentation does not identify a specific First Due permission required to create or manage Saved Views in the Permit List.

Users must have appropriate access to the Permit List. If a user cannot access the Permit List or the expected Saved Views functionality, verify their assigned permissions and access to the applicable Permits functionality.
