The Shark Tank is an effective way to revitalize aged or neglected records. The idea is to allow other users the opportunity to claim records that haven’t resulted in a deal. Other reps can pull from – or steal – those records that fall under your shark tank rules. This type of structure can be automated to ensure opportunities aren’t being left behind and have the chance to be re-worked. These are characterized by the word “Shark Tank” in the list views and default to the bottom of the dropdown options.
Note: Shape lists remember the last list view, filter, search, etc. that you were last performing. If you are having issues finding records, check filters and remove any filters that are applied to the list by clicking the blue “Clear Filters” button, and lastly, remove any searches in the list that may be present using the search icon right above the first table row. The Clear Filters button will clear all searches as well.
Want to manage your records on your list in bulk? Use the left hand checkmarks and the bulk actions dropdown to discover your bulk action options. Once selected, the top row will change.

Note: Deleting records in Shape is reserved for the Admin user role ONLY

This Saved Filtered List will appear in your “Saved Lists” dropdown. Also, feel free to create your own custom filters based on fields available in your template.
