# Configuring Layouts

After a Salesforce object is added to Veeam Data Cloud Salesforce Extension, the product automatically creates 2 default layouts for this object and displays these layouts on the **Page Layouts** page:

- **Default List View** — a set of fields that will be shown for all archived records of this object. 

  To access this layout, navigate to the object list view and click **Archived Records**. The **Archived Records** page will open.

- **Record Details** — a set of fields that will be shown for each specific archived record in the **Record Preview** window.

  To access this layout for an archived record of an object, navigate to the object list view, click **Archived Records** and then click the link in the first column. To access this layout for an archived child record of an object, navigate to the object list view, click the name of the parent record that contains the necessary child record, switch to the **Archived Records** tab and then click the link in the first column. The **Record Preview** window will open.

For more information on the **Archived Records** page, see [Viewing Archived Data](viewing_archived_data.md). For more information on page layouts, see [Salesforce documentation](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.customize_layout.htm&type=5).

::: tip

You cannot remove the default layouts; however, you can modify fields included in them — to do that, click **Edit**. Keep in mind that each layout must include at least one field of the *Name* or *ID* type.

:::

If the added object is a parent in a parent-child relationship with other objects, you can also manually create a number of custom **Related List View** layouts for each of the child objects to specify fields that will be shown for all archived child records of this parent object:

1. Switch to the **Page Layouts** tab.
2. Select the necessary child object and click **Add List View Layout**.
3. In the **Create Related List View** window, choose the parent object and a lookup relationship field that will be used to link these objects.
4. Add fields that you want to be displayed in this layout. Note that you must always include at least one field of the *Name* or *ID* type in the layout.
5. Click **Save**. 

To access the created **Related List View** layout, navigate to the parent object list view, click the name of the parent record that contains the necessary child record and switch to the **Archived Records** tab.

::: important

- For a user to be able to view fields included in a default or custom layout, the user must be assigned permissions required to read these fields in Salesforce. To learn how to modify field access settings, see [Salesforce documentation](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.users_profiles_field_perms.htm&type=5).
- When you modify fields of a default or custom layout, these changes apply to all Salesforce [user profiles](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.admin_userprofiles.htm&type=5).
