You can add or remove FactBoxes in the FactBox pane with the Customize dialog box. You use FactBoxes to see information that relates to the record that you have selected in the list or opened in a task page. You can select which FactBoxes to display in your FactBox pane. You can also customize FactBoxes to display only the fields that you need.

Note
Depending on the setting in the UI Elements Removal field in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server Administration tool, only fields that you have permissions for will appear in the Customize window when you customize a FactBox. For more information, see How to: Specify When UI Elements Are Removed.

You can make multiple customizations of the same page based on different access points to the page. For example, you can customize that FactBoxes in the Sales Orders window look different when the window is opened from the Customer Card window than when it is opened from your Role Center. The point from which you access the page to be customized is recorded in that specific page customization. Accordingly, there may be multiple customization records for the same page under your logon, as you can see in the Delete User Personalization window.
