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.
Words and Phrases
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| 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 |

Change the time zone of a time period
When you are viewing or updating a time period definition, its occurrences are displayed in your time zone or the system time zone if yours is not defined. In some cases, for example, if a time period is created for users in another time zone, you may want to change the current display time zone to that one.
Note The time zone change takes effect only for your current session (it will no longer take effect if you log off and then log back in).
To change the time zone of a time period, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Time Period Management > Search Time Periods, and then open the time period record you want to update.
-
Click Change Time Zone.
- In the New session's Time Zone field, select another time zone.
-
Click Finish.
The occurrences are now displayed in the new time zone.
