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". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"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. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

View probable cause records
Incident records contain a Cause Code field in the Incident Details section that links the incident to a probable cause record. This optional field enables you to define the probable cause of an incident. By using a standard series of cause codes, you can more easily track incidents that have a common cause. When you add a cause code to an incident using the Fill function, Incident Management adds accompanying information from the corresponding probable cause record.
To view probable cause records:
- Click Incident Management > Tools > Probable Cause.
- Use search or advanced search to find one or more records.
- To modify a probable cause record, click the record and then make your changes.
- To add a probable cause record:
- Clear the Cause Code field of an existing record, and then enter a new cause code.
- Clear the Resolution Code field, and then enter a new resolution code.
- Enter other optional information in the remaining fields.
- Click Add. A message appears, stating that the new record is added.
- Click OK.
