The steps to configure a view are as follows.

On the App settings screen, click the Views tab.

On the View screen, enter a view name in the Name section.
Set a view display format and the fields to be displayed
-
Specify a display format in the Visible fields and column order section.
The following three display formats can be selected.- List view
- Calendar view
- Custom view
To create or edit a custom view, Kintone administrative permission is required. If you do not have Kintone administrative permission, the Custom view option is not displayed in the Visible Fields and Column Order section on the View settings screen.

Configure what to display in the view. The settings you can configure depend on the display format that you selected.
If you selected "List view"
Place the fields that you want to be displayed on the View screen.
To place fields, drag them from the list on the left side of the screen and drop them in the area on the right.

You can reorder placed fields by dragging and dropping them.
If you want to remove fields one by one, click the Settings icon (the gear-shaped icon) at the right of each field and select Delete.
