Admin Views

Use an Admin View to view and edit the field values and associations of an object. You can see an Admin View for an object only if you have the permission All Permissions/SOX/User Interfaces/View Admin tab.

Unlike a Task View, an Admin View shows all fields and relationships for the profile regardless of the stage in the object's lifecycle. You can manually add fields to an Admin View to ensure that the fields appear in the order you prefer. The order that you choose is also used when the fields are imported and exported. If you don't add the fields manually, the fields appear in a random order in the Other fields section of the Admin View and they are not imported or exported.

To open an Admin View, click an object in Grid View and click the Admin tab in the view.
