Item Views work with a single record of a SmartObject and are bound to the scalar methods of the SmartObject. Item Views can be used to display data (read-only) or capture data for either a new record or edit an existing record.
I have a custom list named “K2 Workflow Tutorials”. We will see how to create an item view using K2 Designer for the “K2 Workflow Tutorials” list.
Navigate to the custom list. Click the List tab and then click on the Application button under the K2 section in the ribbon interface. Click New, then click View.
