Customizable Standard Related Lists

Servletimageserver_78 Salesforce.com customers love the power and flexibility of Customforce, allowing administrators to create their own custom related lists and configure them to meet the needs of their specific businesses. Summer ’05 extends that power to include most standard related lists as well, in response to popular demand that made this the number-one feature request of our customer community. With this new capability, you can customize the columns displayed, column order, and sort order of the records in virtually any related list, all with just a few clicks. For Enterprise Edition customers, related list customizations are definable for each page layout, supporting granular combinations of profile- and record-type-based.

This feature is available in Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited Editions.
