A custom-layout view uses SharedLayout = false and filters on the Balance (LCY) field to show only records above a local-currency threshold
Customize the UI experience, and implement onboarding techniques
AnswerCorrect answer: C - use SharedLayout = false for a custom view and filter on the Balance (LCY) field with a '> 500' filter, since the view targets local-currency balance.
You are creating a view for a Business Central app. The view requires a custom layout that displays only customer records with a balance greater than 500 in local currency. You need to configure the view to specify that it has a custom layout. Which property combination should you use?

Community Insight
The local-currency balance is exposed as the Balance (LCY) field, so a view for local-currency amounts should filter that field. SharedLayout determines whether the view shares the default layout.
In Business Central views, SharedLayout = false means the view defines its own layout rather than reusing the default view layout. To filter on the local-currency balance you reference the Balance (LCY) field directly instead of combining Balance with a Currency Code filter.
Do not set SharedLayout = true when a custom layout is required, and do not filter Balance while separately filtering Currency Code for a local-currency requirement; use Balance (LCY) instead.
correct, SharedLayout specifies whether the view has the same layout as the default view 'All

Expert Analysis
Why the Answer Is Correct
Option C is correct because a custom-layout view requires SharedLayout = false, and the local-currency balance is the Balance (LCY) field, so the filter where (Balance (LCY) = filter (> 500)) is the right expression. This matches the requirement to display only customer records with a balance greater than 500 in local currency. Community voting is unanimously C (100 votes), and leoizgon cites the SharedLayout property documentation.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A and Option B set SharedLayout = true, which means the view reuses the default layout rather than providing a custom one, contradicting the requirement. Option D also sets SharedLayout = true and still uses Balance (LCY), failing the custom-layout requirement. Options that split the filter into Balance plus Currency Code ('LCY') are unnecessary because Balance (LCY) already represents the local-currency balance.
Community Comment Notes
e3b13ec confirms that SharedLayout specifies whether the view has the same layout as the default view, and examenesArb agrees the answer is C.
