A Section in Zoho CRM is a named grouping of fields within a Page Layout. Sections help organise a record's fields into logical blocks - such as Basic Information, Address Details, or Deal Financials - making long forms easier to navigate and fill in.
When you open a Page Layout in the Zoho CRM layout editor, you will see that fields are organised into Sections. Each Section has a name (visible as a heading in the record view) and a configurable column count (1 or 2 columns). You can add, remove, reorder, and rename Sections to match your team’s workflow.
For example, a Contact layout might have Sections called: Basic Information (Name, Email, Phone), Company Details (Account Name, Title, Department), Address (Mailing and Other), and Social Profiles (LinkedIn, Twitter). This makes the Contact record much easier to complete than a single long list of fields.
Sections in Zoho CRM can be configured as collapsible. Users can collapse sections they rarely need, keeping the record view clean. This is especially useful on modules with many fields, such as a Custom Module built for detailed project or asset tracking.

Yes. Sections can be configured as collapsible in the Page Layout editor. Users can then collapse sections they do not need during a particular interaction, keeping the active part of the form visible.
