AccountedPro - Advanced Listview

Advanced Listview replaces Frappe's list view with one you can configure, rendered in place at /app/<doctype>. A list you have switched it on for looks and behaves differently; every other list on the site is untouched.

It exists so that the things people used to ask a developer for — coloured status pills, per-row buttons, KPI cards, child-table chips, tabbed presets — are settings rather than a bespoke HTML block. Someone who knows the business builds the view; a developer is only needed when a Server Script has to supply data or perform an action.

What you get


A real table	Sticky header, columns you can resize, reorder, freeze and hide, widths in pixels or percent, three densities, alternating rows.
Columns that hold more than a field	One column can carry a badge, two buttons and a second line of text, each with its own rules.
Colour that means something	Conditional colour rules per element, automatic colour per value, row edge accents, progress bars.
Editing in place	Opt in per element: double-click, or a real input sitting in the row. Permissions, docstatus and `allow_on_submit` are all respected.
Grouping with totals	Collapsible groups whose counts and sums are computed over the whole filtered set, not just the page on screen.
Tabs, filters and cards	Named presets with count badges, a filter bar of seven control types, and KPI cards fed by a count, a sum, or a Server Script.
An expanded row	Click a row to open a panel of blocks: field sections, child tables, comments, records from another DocType.
Drill-down everywhere	Show, filter, group and sort by a field on a linked document — up to ten links deep, one query per level for the whole page.
Per-device layouts	Any mobile setting overrides its desktop counterpart — width, alignment, label, or hidden entirely.
Three view modes	The same layout as a table, as cards, or as a board with a column per group.

Switching it on

The app installs disabled. Nothing changes until a System Manager opts a DocType in.

Open Advanced Listview Settings (/app/advanced-listview-settings).
Tick Enable Advanced Listview.
Add a row under Governed DocTypes — for example Sales Order.
Reload the Desk. The governed list is read when the Desk boots.

Anything not listed keeps Frappe's stock list. Unticking the master switch restores stock behaviour everywhere, immediately — that is the intended escape hatch, and nothing is lost by using it.

Where things live

Where	Holds
Advanced Listview Settings	The master switch, the governed DocTypes, site-wide theme defaults
Customize Form → Advanced List View	The builder for a standard DocType
`/app/advanced-list-builder?doctype=<name>`	The same builder for a custom DocType, which Customize Form will not open

Layouts, views, settings

Three words that are easy to confuse:

	Belongs to	Decides
Layout	The DocType	What the list can show — columns, tabs, cards, buttons, theme. Built in the builder.
Saved view	A person	How they like to look at it — filters, sort, widths. Saved from the toolbar.
Settings	The site	Whether the app is on at all, and for which DocTypes.

What still works

Advanced Listview extends Frappe's list view rather than replacing it, so the sidebar, pagination, the count, realtime updates, bulk operations, the Filter dialog, keyboard shortcuts and every listview_settings customisation keep working. Only the rendering and the column layer are taken over.

Permissions

Every read goes through Frappe's own query layer, never raw SQL, so row-level permissions still apply — including Advanced Permission scopes. Inline edits go through the normal write path. Buttons re-check their roles and their row condition on the server against the freshly loaded document, because a client that hides a button is a client that can be told not to.

Two things the app cannot vouch for, and says so where you configure them:

a Server Script data source returns its own rows, so the script decides what a reader may see;
a Server Script action does whatever it was written to do.

The pages

Using it

Building a view — the builder, its panels, the live preview, saving and versions
Columns and elements — every element type and every setting on them
Filters, conditions and drill-down — the condition builder, operators, @me, relative dates
The filter bar — the seven controls readers use
Tabs and their order — presets, counts, and sorting including by a linked field
Number cards — counts, sums, averages, data-source values
The expanded row — fields, child tables, comments, related records
Buttons and actions — the six action types, prompts, arguments, bulk actions
Grouping, saved views and theme — group order, totals, appearance, custom CSS
