How to: Customize FastTabs

FastTabs help organize information about pages into simple, manageable groups. You can customize FastTabs on pages so that they support your workflow. For example, you may want to show fewer FastTabs or hide specific fields on FastTabs. You can also promote the most important fields to be included in the FastTab headers when the FastTabs are collapsed.

You can peform the following tasks to customize FastTabs on pages:

  • Add or remove FastTabs.

  • Add or remove fields from FastTabs.

  • Show fields on collapsed FastTab headers.

  • Hide fields on FastTabs.

Note

Depending on the setting in the UI Elements Removal field in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server Administration tool, only FastTabs and fields that you have permissions for will appear in the Customize window. For more information, see How to: Specify How UI Elements Are Removed.

You can make multiple customizations of the same page based on different access points to the page. For example, you can customize that FastTabs in the Sales Orders window look different when the window is opened from the Customer Card window than when it is opened from your Role Center. The point from which you access the page to be customized is recorded in that specific page customization. Accordingly, there may be multiple customization records for the same page under your logon, as you can see in the Delete User Personalization window.
