Try It Out: Customize the Job Application Record Highlights

Since there are only a few fields, we don’t need to worry about customizing the page layout. It’s a good time, however, to customize the compact layout.

1. From Setup, click Create | Objects.
2. Click Job Application.
3. In the Compact Layouts related list, use the New button to create a compact layout with the following fields. Enter a name in Label, and use the Up and Down buttons to match the order.
   • Job Application Number
   • Status
   • Candidate
   • Position
4. Click Save.

Remember to quickly assign our new compact layout as the primary compact layout for job applications.

5. Click Compact Layout Assignment.
6. Click Edit Assignment.
7. From the drop-down list, select the compact layout you just created.
8. Click Save.
