The System here refers to the category of the data included within the account, e.g. users, country, etc.

Lists

Upon selecting the list, the "List Name" option becomes active, showcasing all lists generated within the account.

You can create a new list or customize an existing one by utilizing the gear icon located next to the "List Name" option.
