# Filter Your Lists to Find What You Need

Use a list view to see a filtered list of records, such as only contacts, accounts, or custom objects.

## Why Do We Use Them?

You can use a list view to go over your sales and service records with different filters.

![List view called My Cases with filter open to show the variety of options you can filter by](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-xcloud-essentials-264-0-0-production-enus/e0001bec-929a-481e-9d65-d13539e5cfe8/essentials/images/list_views_2_filters.png)

## Why Are They Important?

You can view just what you want and nothing more.
