Creating the Group Account Tab

To make this information visible on an Account view you will need to add a new tab to a panel and the required fields. To Learn more about adding a Tab to a Panel please click here

When creating a Group Account Tab you will have two Field/Items that relate to go Grouping Accounts -

‘*Group Account Field’ - This field will give you the option to add Accounts to a group. It is a search box and is hard coded so you cannot change the criteria it searches on.

‘*Group Accounts’ - This field will show you a list of all the Accounts in this group.

Once you have added what you want click the ‘Back’ button and turn off editing. These will now be added to the ‘Additional Information’ Panel and you can see below how it will appear.
