Create and save custom views
How to build a viewViewA reusable, named saved state: columns, filters, sort, location scope, and forecast settings (model, history period, growth amplifiers, safety stock). Views are the unit of reusable analysis across Logistified: they power the Forecast page, Notifications (which variants to alert on), Reports (which variants to email about), and PO creation (which variants to order from). Most operators build many views, one per real-world question (overdue reorders, slow movers, single-supplier batches), and switch between them depending on what they're doing.
