Managing Tab Visibility and Display Order
- iPad
- iPhone
To customize Veeva CRM for users’ workflows and streamline navigation, admins can reorder or remove visibility to tabs on the navigation bar. This functionality includes the option to display My Cycle Plan, Suggestions, and My Tasks on the navigation bar, so iPad users can quickly navigate to those tabs without returning to the home page.
For example, Sarah Jones uses the My Tasks tab multiple times a day. Her admin includes the My Tasks tab in the first six items of the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY list, so the tab displays on the bottom navigation bar and Sarah can select it quickly, rather than navigating through the More button or back to the home page to reach My Tasks.
Considerations
The following existing settings are disregarded when the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Setting is enabled:
- ENHANCED_COACHING_MODE Veeva Setting (Advanced Coaching Reports tab)
- ENABLE_IPAD_MYSAMPLES Veeva Setting (My Samples tab)
- KAM_ENABLE Veeva Setting (Account Plan tab)
- ENABLE_OFFLINE_CALL_OBJECTIVES Veeva Setting (Call Objectives tab)
Configuring Tab Visibility and Display Order
To enable this feature:
- Populate the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Setting with TAB_NAV_DISPLAY;;Common.
- Populate the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message with a double semicolon-delimited list of the appropriate tabs to display, in the desired order. The list is not case sensitive.
To quickly edit tab display order, edit the following formatted list which includes all tabs in their default order:
MyAccounts;;MySchedule;;Media;;VInsights;;MedicalInquiryFulfillments;;SurveyTargets;;CallObjectives;;AccountPlans;;Email;;MedicalInsights;;MedicalEvents;;MyPlan;;MySamples;;CoachingReports;;AdvancedCoachingReports;;TerritoryFeedback;;Documents;;Files;;GoOnline;;MyCyclePlan;;Suggestions;;MyTasks;;Speakers
Tabs included in the list display as long as the tab’s prerequisites are met and the tab is available on the user’s platform. Tabs not included in the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message do not display. See the following table for each tab’s prerequisites and platform availability.

Managing Widget Visibility
When the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Setting is enabled, admins can configure the following items to display as tabs on the navigation bar, in addition to configuring them as widgets on the home page. To remove any of these tabs from the navigation bar so they only display as home page widgets, do not include the corresponding list value in the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message:
Tab |
List Value |
---|---|
Call Objectives |
CallObjectives |
My Cycle Plan |
MyCyclePlan |
Suggestions |
Suggestions |
My Tasks |
MyTasks |
Additional widgets are available. For more information on changing widget visibility and configuring widgets, see CRM Mobile Application Home Page.
The zvod_Call_Objectives_vod field on the VMobile_Home_Page_Layout_vod object no longer controls Call Objectives tab visibility on iPad; to view the Call Objectives tab, users only need Read permission for the Call_Objective_vod object. The zvod_Call_Objectives_vod field still controls Call Objectives widget visibility.
Viewing Tabs
Tabs display in the order specified in the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message. The Home tab always displays as the first icon in the navigation bar. For Engage Connect users, the Engage tab always display as the second icon in the navigation bar. See Enabling Engage Chat in CRM for more information.
Depending on the device, the following tabs display in the navigation bar:
- iPad - the first six tabs specified in the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message display in the navigation bar. If six or fewer tabs are specified, the More icon at the end of the navigation bar is replaced by the Options icon.
- iPhone - the first three tabs specified in the TAB_NAV_DISPLAY Veeva Message display in the navigation bar. If three or fewer tabs are specified, the More icon at the end of the navigation bar is replaced by the Options icon.
To view additional tabs, select the More icon, then select the appropriate tab.
