In a Customer Data Platform, customer data management usually begins with creating various fields based on business needs. As more fields are added, the data display can become crowded and less structured if it is not properly organized.

To support more structured and efficient data management, Mekari Qontak provides the Data Layout feature within the Customer Data Platform. This feature allows you to arrange the layout and control the visibility of customer information based on user roles or each team’s specific needs. As a result, each team will only see and manage relevant data, making workflows more efficient while also helping to maintain data security.

This feature is available on several pages, including the Add Single Customer Page, Customer Details Page, Edit Customer Page, Customer Profile in the Inbox side navigation, as well as Edit Customer Profile in the Inbox side navigation, both on the Website and Mobile applications (CRM Mobile and Chat Mobile).

For a complete explanation, please refer to the step-by-step guide below.

  1. Log in to your Mekari Qontak account.
  2. Then, select the "Settings" menu.
  3. Next, click the "Customizations" sub-menu and choose "Customers".
  4. On the “Customers” page, select “Open customer layout”.
  5. After that, enter the layout name.

    The “Default View Layout” only displays fields that are automatically created by the system (Qontak’s default fields). Any additional fields created by users must be manually added to the layout.

    Important
    The “Default View Layout” cannot be deleted by anyone, including Admins.
