Note: Information can only be sorted by one column at a time. To sort multiple columns of information at once, we recommend exporting a list of leads

Important: The Account columns are present in all views and cannot be removed.

You can select any number of visible, account, or custom fields. Be aware that you will need to scroll right to view columns that appear offscreen.



Regarding the Contact and Opportunities Columns

The Contact and Opportunities columns display information in a slightly different manner than other columns. These columns will display the most recently updated contact or opportunity will be listed in the column. Other associated contacts or opportunities will be attached as a number. 

You can click on any of the contacts or opportunities in the columns. You will be redirected to the contact or opportunity in a new browser tab.
