To enhance collaboration across companies, you can export selected views (and links) to a file that can be imported into other company databases.
In this video, you will learn about the export and import views functionality. You can export all of the following views:
- List views of all types – table views, chart views, card views
- Views in the general overview
- Views in the user-defined query
- The links of all those views to various master data and various documents
There are backups of the views, and you can import them into another company’s database.
