Working with Items → Archiving Items → Searching for Archived Items
Use the Advanced Search feature to find items in Archive tables. The search results display a list of archived items in the Item List pane. Detailed information also appears pertaining to the archived items.
To search for archived primary items using the Advanced Search:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Keyword(s) |
Use the Keyword box to search for information in Text fields that are set up for keyword searching by your administrator. Keyword searches typically apply to the Title and Description fields, but may include other fields as well. For multiple keywords, separate each word with a space. To find an exact phrase, enclose the phrase with quotation marks. To find all items, leave the box empty. Asterisks (*), percent signs (%), and underscores (_) serve as wildcard characters. A wildcard character matches zero or more consecutive characters. |
| Match All | Select this option to search for a match to all the keywords that you typed. This is also referred to as an "and" search, meaning that if you type in two keywords, items containing both those keywords are returned. |
| Match Any | Select this option to search for a match on any of the keywords that you typed. This is also referred to as an "or" search, meaning that if you type in two keywords, items containing at least one of those keywords is returned. |
| Project(s) | You must select a project or multiple projects that contain the items that you are searching for. You can use the SHIFT and CTRL keys to select multiple projects in the list. The Project(s) list contains a full list of projects to which you have view privileges, or a list of preferred projects. If you are viewing your preferred projects list, the projects are listed alphabetically. |
| Show All Projects/Show My Projects | If you have specified preferred projects, your preferred project list appears by default. Click Show All Projects to view the full list of projects that you can view. When the full project list is displayed, click Show My Projects to view your preferred projects. Note that the Show My Projects link is disabled if you have not specified preferred projects for the selected application. |
| Manage My Projects | Click this link to open the Application Settings page to the My Projects tab. You can then modify your preferred projects list as needed. When you are finished managing your projects, you are returned to the search page. |
| Search in Sub-projects | Select this check box to include subprojects of the selected project in the query. If one of your preferred projects is a parent project but its subprojects are not in your preferred projects list, subprojects of the parent are searched if this check box is set. |
| Search in Table | By default, this drop-down list contains the primary
table associated with the selected application. Auxiliary tables, archived
tables, and the Notes/Attachment table may also be available, depending on your
privileges. Select the table you want to search from the list.
Note: The table you select determines the
fields available on the form; if you select search criteria and then select a
different table from the
Search in Table drop-down list,
your selections are lost.
