Adjusting the view of the contracts list
You can adjust the view of the contracts list to locate relevant information more quickly. At the
Contracts level, you can use the toggle buttons at the top of the elements list to modify the view in several ways. These toggle buttons — also referred to as
step actions — are available to all users by default. If needed, you can hide specific toggle buttons for users for whom they are not relevant. For more information, see
Step actions.
• The
Show list 
/
Show tree 
toggle button allows you to switch between the tree view and the list view of the elements list at the
Contracts level. In list view, you can sort the elements list in ascending or descending order by selecting a column header. In the example below, the list is sorted by name in descending order:
• The
Show related contracts 
toggle button displays all contracts related to the selected main contract or subcontract. When filters are applied, related subcontracts or main contracts may not be shown. To view the full contract ‘family’ regardless of the current selection, click the
Show related contracts toggle button. When the button is active, all contracts belonging to the selected contract’s family appear in the elements list in a lighter shade, even if they fall outside your current selection.
• The
Contracts without contract lines 
toggle button allows you to display either all contracts or only those without contract lines. By default, all contracts are shown. Click this toggle button to display only contracts without contract lines.
• The
Show contracts with approval 
toggle button allows you to quickly display all contracts with an approval. For more information, see
Filtering on open approvals.
