You can create a personalized saved search of a table in a Query page using one of two methods:

   Method 1:

1. Navigate to the application page that contains the personalizable table you wish to alter.

2. Use the search panel to query for specific results in the table.

3. Select Save Search to save the search criteria that queried for these results.

4. When you select Save Search, the Create Saved Search page appears, allowing you to save this search as a new personalized saved search of the table. You can also edit other attributes and properties of the table.

5. Once you apply your changes, the saved search becomes a personalized saved search that you can select from a panel that lists your personal saved searches.

   Method 2:

1. Navigate to the application page that contains the table you wish to personalize.

2. If the page does not already show the Saved Searches panel, select Saved Searches.

   Additional Information: If the region does not have any predefined personalizations, the Saved Search panel does not appear. Instead the Search region appears and you can create a personalization by choosing the Save Search button after specifying and performing a search.

3. In the Saved Searches panel, you have two options:

   • Apply a specific personal saved search, if one exists, by selecting a saved search from the Saved Searches poplist and choosing Go.

   • Create a new saved search or update an existing saved search by choosing Personalize to display the Personalize Saved Searches page.

   Method 3:

1. Navigate to the application page that contains the table you wish to personalize.

2. Use your mouse to drag columns to new positions or resize columns in the table. The resulting personalization is automatically saved to a saved search.

Restrictions

OA Personalization does not retain the saved search selection for the current Query page when you move to another page. For example, suppose you display a personalized saved search of the Query page by selecting a saved search (such as Saved Search X) from the Saved Searches panel. Then you select the Personalize button to display the Personalize Saved Searches page, but choose Cancel without making any changes. When you return to the Query page, the base definition is displayed and not Saved Search X. As a developer, if you do not want this behavior and instead, want to retain the saved search, you need to modify the controller for the page to pass the user-selected saved search as a parameter and set that saved search as the current personalization when ever the user returns to the Query page.
