Manage sections in custom layouts | Zoho Sprints Help

Manage sections in custom layouts

Before working with fields, it's important to define a section. A section is a group of fields with a similar set of purpose.
  1. Default Section: A default section is the standard one that contains all the default fields in it. Users can also add new custom fields to their default section.
  1. New Section: A new section is the one that the user adds below the default section. A set of fields with similar purpose is grouped under a section.  
For example, if the user has a list of fields that are related to development then it can be added under a new section 'Development'. 

Create new section

  1. Go to Settings page.
  2. Select the module from Layouts and Fields
  3. Select a layout to add a new section. 
  4. Drag and drop Add Section under New Fields
  5. Enter the section name.


  • You cannot add a new section in the standard layout. 
  • You need to add at least one field in the section to save the layout.  
  • You can add only 25 sections to a layout. 

Edit section

  1. Go to Settings page.
  2. Select the module from Layouts and Fields
  3. Select the layout. 
  4. Navigate to the section that you want to modify.
  5. Click on the section name to edit it.

Delete section

  1. Go to Settings page.
  2. Select the module from Layouts and Fields
  3. Select the layout. 
  4. Navigate to the section that you want to delete. 
  5. Click  to the right end of the section name.


You cannot delete the section without moving the existing fields to a new section.
