Smart Search console

In some data entry grids, filter forms, and hierarchy trees, the system presents the Smart Search console at the top of the form so that you can restrict the values that the form presents. Complete one or more fields in the Smart Search console and the resulting grid or form will display records restricted to that value. For tables that contain a lot of records, use the Smart Search console to locate just those records that you need.

You can enter partial values.

• To perform a wildcard search, use the "%" operator, such as entering “ADMIN%” to find values beginning with "ADMIN", such as, ADMIN and ADMINISTRATOR, but not DEPT-ADMIN.
• If you want to find records that have particular characters anywhere within the value, enter those characters without a wildcard, such as "ADMIN" to find ADMIN, ADMINISTRATOR, or DEPT-ADMIN.

In System Management Help, the Smart Search console is sometimes referred to as the "mini-console."
