# Working with tabs in the overview screen

In the [overview screen](/en/article/using-overview-screens-10zscoo/) you can work with several tabs, or 'trays'. 

Using several tabs has quite a few **benefits**:

* You can create a tab for each search term you use often
* If you work with multiple companies, you can use one tab per [company](https://support.robaws.com/en/article/adding-a-company-1w61tjm/)
* You can set up an overview entirely as you wish, without this affecting other users

*Example: *
*You create a tab 'my quotations to follow up'. In it you set a default filter on the status 'follow up'. This always shows all quotations with the status follow up.*
*By using such a tab, you can call up all quotations to follow up very quickly, without having to filter every time.*

## Creating a tab

Every module always has **one standard general overview** (the first tab), which is accessible to everyone and which cannot be deleted.
On top of that, you can create **additional tabs**. These tabs are personal, or you can choose to [make them public](https://support.robaws.com/en/article/using-overview-screens-10zscoo/) so that all users have access to these overviews.

|| When you create a new tab, you make a copy of the previous tab. All changes you make to it are personal to you and do not affect other users.

## Sharing tabs

When you create a tab, you have the option to make it public or keep it private. 

You can make a tab public in **2 ways**:

1. You make the tab public straight away when you create it. You do this by clicking the 'globe' at the top right of the window.
2. You make the overview public later on. You do this by clicking 'overviews' on the right in the overview screen and then clicking the 'globe' next to the tab you want to make public.

## Using a shared tab

You can add another user's shared tab to your own overview.
You do this by clicking 'overviews' on the right in the overview screen. You then select the tab you want to add to your overview.
As soon as it has been added to your overview, you can work with it.

|| Once you have added the shared tab to your overview screen, changes to it only affect you and not other users.
