Automate data grouping and streamline user workflows by creating custom entity oe people pages tailored to specific team roles.

Overview

Custom pages allow administrators to build tailored entity or people pages that group specific system and custom fields in one central location. These pages can be configured for visibility by role, ensuring only relevant users see specific content. This helps teams organize data around actual operational structures (e.g., tax, fund, legal), which reduces interface clutter, maintains proper data separation, and improves overall platform usability.

Availability: Customers with the Scale Configurability add-on.
