Step # 1 – Create View

Step # 2 – Add different Custom views
In this tutorial we have made multiple custom views in Excel. First of all we made the “Normal” view in the Excel Worksheet. Next, we zoom out the sheet up to 60%. This way, we can see the entire cash flow statement. Once done, we will create another custom view using the same steps.

Step # 3 – Access different views
Now open the different views that we created to see if they work or not. To do so, move over to the “Custom View” button and in the window that opens, double click on the name of the view that you wish to open. You can easily access all the different custom views you create from here.
