Create the database view.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSystem DefinitionDatabase Views.
2. Select New.
3. Name the view as you would name a new table.  
   The application converts capital letters to lower case and spaces to underscores.
4. Provide a label and a plural.  
   The Label and Plural fields define how the database view is labeled in lists and forms. For example, give a database view with the label Duplicate installation
   the plural <kbd class="ph userinput">Duplicate installations</kbd>.
5. **Optional:** Provide a description of the database view so that other users know its purpose.
6. Select Submit.

## Result

The database view is created and accessible from the Database Views module.
