Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
| Search for | Example | Results | 
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
                                                                             | 
                                                                            Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |

                                                                            "cat food" (quotation marks) | 
                                                                            
                                                                                 Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.  |

Formats tab
The Formats tab contains two areas: Display Formats and Print Formats. Each area lists the forms that Incident Management invokes when you assign a category to an Incident record. The form name identifies the associated file, category, and task. For example, the display form to open an Incident record is problem.default.open. The form name includes the following information:
- The table name (problem)
 - The category (default)
 - The action (open)
 
Display forms
| Type of display | Form name | 
|---|---|
| Open | problem.default.open | 
| Update | problem.default.update | 
| Close | problem.default.close | 
| Browse | problem.browse | 
| QBE | problem.qbe | 
Print forms
| Type of display | Form name | 
|---|---|
| Default | problem.browse | 
Note: Always specify the base format name. Do not specify the .g variation of the form.
