Lookup/Select
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

This section lists instructions for Lookup and Selecting various items in the software. The sections are broken down into Inventory, Customers, Vendors, Purchase Order Number, Recurring Purchase Order Number, Deposit Slip, General Ledger-Journal Entries and Job Cost.


All lookups have advanced search capabilities. In any lookup, press <ENTER> to perform an advanced search. You can search on the Item ID or the Description (whatever is normally displayed next to the ID). Wildcard capability with <]> and <[> characters allow a search for items that begin with or end with the search string. If no brackets are used, the entire data field will be searched for the string.

 

In addition, all advanced searches will narrow the previous selection. In other words, if the first search returns 50 items, the second search will only search those 50 items. The lookup title will display the number of items searched. The search string(s) will be highlighted in the lookup screen.
