The numbers correspond to the different ways you can approach the Page Layout editor. These are described below.
How to go to the Page Layout editor
How to approach the Page Layout editor differs per page. Here you can find the ways how to.
1. Standard Salesforce Menu
Note: Only the Page Layout editor of the Salesforce Objects can be approached directly via the Salesforce Menu.
a. Go to the Salesforce Setup
b. In the Menu go to Build > Customize and navigate to the (standard) Salesforce Object, such as Accounts or Contacts.
c. Click on the expand option and look for "Page Layouts"
d. Edit the Page Layout you want to modify
2. Links on the Page & 3. Quick Access Menu
These Links and the Quick Access Menu to the editor are available on the Layout of Salesforce Objects and Objects that can be found "under" the Connexys Resource Manager Setup (Connexys Settings). Click on "Edit Layout" and you can go directly to the Editor. Via the Quick Access Menu (3) it is also possible to instantly access the Fields, Object, Validation Rules or Records of the Objects.
To edit the Layout of the Workflow tab (i.e. Applicant tracking) is quite different from the ways described above. This Page Layout is made up only of Field Sets and there is no editor for this page.
a. Go to the Salesforce Setup
b. In the Menu go to Build > Create and navigate to the Object, or use the Quick Find
c. Look for the Object Job Application and click on it
d. Navigate to the Field Sets or use the Field Sets hover links at the top of the screen
e. The relevant Field Sets here are: workflowTab and workflowTab2 (see image below)
Other configuration of the Workflow Tab can be found in the Connexys Setup. Go in the section Basic Setup to the Application Settings. Via All Settings go to "Workflow".
Disable browse button: Remove the browse button from the Workflow tab
Disable compare button: Remove the compare button from the Workflow tab
Default workflow (applicant tracking): The name of the workflow used as default when opening the Workflow tab
Workflow configurations concerning the layout of the homepage
