Personalize List Choices

[Cirrus]

Hi,

Can anyone advise if, or how, to remove fields from the left hand slush bucket when you personalize a list. The scenario is that a table extends the task table. The slush bucket displays all fields related to both task table and table A, so users are having to trawl through 100+ fields to find the ones they want. They only want to see the fields that are currently used on table A

This is OOTB behavior.

I will suggest not to try anything custom and train your users on how to use.

It's mostly part of user training.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @Cirrus ,

Steps (do as security_admin😞

1. Go System Security → Access Control (ACL) → New.

2. Set Type = record, Operation = add_to_list, Name = <your_table>.<field_name>.

3. In Requires role, add the role(s)** allowed to see/add that column (e.g., admin) and save.

4. Refresh/impersonate a normal user — that field will no longer show in Personalize → Available.

Notes: add_to_list ACLs are role-based only (conditions/scripts aren’t supported), so you must create one per field (or script-create them in bulk).
