When I choose ListView for displaying child items of a document type, I can choose between the default content ListView or I can create a custom ListView. This custom ListView is then created as a data type.
Question: Can I resuse this custom ListView data type on another document type or do I have to create a custom ListView for every single document type?
Ok, I understand that I have to consider the properties.
My question aimed rather at HOW can I resuse it... I do not find any button or anything else, where I can pick an existing ListView data type. Either use the default or click to create a custom.
Reuse ListView data type

Hi Stephan,
You could reuse it. But if you are using doctype specific properties that are not present in the other doctype, it could cause issues.

Ha Stephan,
To reuse it you don't check the listview checkbox on the document types.
But you will need to add a tab to your doctypes. And than add a property to that using the your custom list view datatype

Thanks a lot.
