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 |

Add an audit specifications record
Applies to User Roles:
System Administrator
To add an audit specification record:
- Click Tailoring > Audit > Audit Specifications.
-
Type a file name in the Filename field.
In this example, type contacts.
-
Enter unique keys in the Unique A, B, C, or D field.
The Unique key for the contacts file is contact.name. In this example, type contact.name in the Unique A field and leave Unique B through D as NULL.
- Click Add.
When Service Manager records an Audit Log record, for example, the contact name Teresa Chan, the Filename field is recorded in the Audit Log as contacts and the Unique A field is recorded as TERESA CHAN.
The contacts Audit Log record then has a unique association with a contacts record. You can generate new Audit Logs based on the data found in the previous log record for a specific device.
Note: A device is also referred to as a Configuration Item (CI).
