'Reset to defaults' in lists is bringing me back some weird set of columns

Hi SNC,


I am referring to is the "Reset to column defaults" button on the Personalize list form. When I open 'Incidents' list view or ServiceDesk, MyWork for example and I reset the columns to default, I don't get what I have setup as the default columns via the Configure List Layout as an admin. (please see attachment 'incidents' - this is the columns I need). Instead I see a set of weird columns which come from....????? Business Duration, Approval set and other useless to me stuff.

Even worse, if I use the global search say, when I look at the columns presented by default for the incidents there I see those mysterious columns again (see attachment 'global search').

I opened a ticket with HI and still they have not resolved my issue, already a day. They pointed me to the sys_ui_list LIsts to see that I had two default ones. I removed one of them, but again nothing changed for the better.


Any ideas?

Hi,



Can you try to clear the cache of the instance and check once.


I did try the cache.do but nothing changed, still see those.

Did you try to remove the 2 sys_ui_list you had for yourself and cache.do to force the cache to be reset.


then it should be ok (usually that what fix this kind of UI issue).


Hm, now it looks OK I guess it took a while for the cache.do to work, which is weird.


But I thought I had similarly resolved it yesterday, and today it was again messed up. So I will not say it's resolved, let's sit and wait (like in Heineken's commercials;))
