A View in Beacon Finance refers to a hierarchy of accounts. Each IC has a "Master View" which contains every CAN at the IC.
In Beacon Finance, users can create Summary Accounts. The data for the CANs contained within a Summary Account will roll up, allowing you to view the data summarized. Summary Accounts provide a way to group CANs or other Summary Accounts together.
Beacon Finance provides the ability to create custom views, giving users the ability to see the Accounts or CANs they need in the hierarchy they'd like to view them.
If you are looking to create a temporary custom view, consider using the Ad-Hoc Account feature. To learn more How to Create an Ad-Hoc View
