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 |
|
Sort the data in a subform
Applies to User Roles:
System Administrator
You can configure the default sort order of the data that is displayed in a subform. To do this, configure the following two drop-down lists in the Link form of the subform:
- Sort Field(To/Target)
Sets the field by which the subform is sorted - Sort Order(To/Target)
Sets the order in which the field is sorted
Note
- If multiple links are defined for a field in the Link file of the subform, you must use the first link to define the default sort field and sort order.
- You cannot sort array fields in Service Manager 9.32. Therefore, you should not configure an array field as the default sort field.
- You may experience slow performance if you configure a long text field (for example, the Description field) as the default sort field.
