Custom Grids

While Grids are provided on the Cases and Assignments tabs, Custom Grids on the home page provide a more flexible look at cases and assignment, including allowing Custom Fields to be added to the grid. Additionally, Custom Grids can be expanded to full screen size, so they can completely replace Case and Assignment grids. Case Widgets and Other Widgets from the home page include this additional Custom Grid functionality. Case Widgets include open case information and Other Widgets include Case Assignment information.
