Grid Controls Reference
AlloyScan list pages use a common grid pattern for Inventory, Software, Analytics, Logs, and many Admin Center pages.
This reference explains the controls that appear across those grids. Individual modules may hide controls that do not apply to their data.
Common toolbar controls
| Control | Purpose |
|---|---|
| View selector | Switch between saved views such as Default View and custom views. |
| Type or sub-view selector | Switch a grid's logical view, such as Software by name vs by name and version. |
| Action buttons | Run actions on selected rows, such as Audit, Schedule, Tag, Delete, Upload, or Change history. |
| Filter items | Search within the loaded grid rows. |
| More menu | Open additional grid-level actions. |
| Settings / gear | Open the Customize View panel for columns, filters, formatting, fields, and grouping. |
| Pagination controls | Move between pages of loaded rows. |
Customize View panel
Inventory grids expose the richest version of the Customize View panel:
- Columns — choose and reorder visible columns
- Filter — build column-based filters
- Conditional formatting — highlight rows based on values
- Fields — choose additional data fields exposed by the device type
- More — grid-specific options
Other grids may expose a smaller set of tabs.
Saved views
Use saved views when you need to reuse a column, filter, sort, or grouping setup.
- Users and Administrators can save custom grid views.
- Saved views are available from the view selector.
Grouping
Most grids support grouping by dragging a field into the Group By target. Grouped rows can be expanded and collapsed.
Audit schedule indicator
Audit schedule status uses an exception-only indicator in Inventory grids. A red crossed schedule indicator appears beside a device name only when the device has no Audit schedule. Hover over the indicator to see Not scheduled. No schedule indicator is displayed when an Audit schedule is assigned.
To assign a schedule, see How to manage audit schedules.
1000-row cap and Load all
Large grids load the top 1000 records by default. When the cap applies, AlloyScan shows a banner explaining that grouping and column filters apply only to the loaded subset.
Use Load all only when you need to work with the complete result set. Loading all rows can be slower on large Sites.
