User Layouts & Fields

User Layouts & Fields

Layout

Zoho Projects enables user layout customization. A user layout helps create the components for user invitation form. It records details of a user in default and custom fields. Users with appropriate permissions can add or edit custom fields to the default user layout.
The User layout is categorized as: Portal User Layout and Client user Layout. The layout types help record data unique to the user types. A portal user layout includes unique fields like Reporting to, and Role unlike client users layout fields which record client address and billing details. To align the layouts to projects and portals, managers and admins can add custom fields to Portal and Client user layout as per their project requirement.

InfoAvailability: Enterprise plan and above.
