The Procurement application provides two ways to search for items in the catalog.
Use this method to search the catalog and sort (or group) the results using multiple criteria. Detail searches are particularly useful when you want to make a progressive search, or to refine the results of a previous search or browse.
Use this method to search every item description, manufacturer's and supplier's name and part number, in the catalog for specific phrase, word or number. You can use parts of a word and Wild Card Characters to extend the search.
When doing a keyword search, the Procurement application searches the full text of the Catalog Item Descriptions. Although this takes longer than searching just the short item descriptions, it allows you to use more complex keyword search syntax to refine your search and return a shorter list of items that meet your exact requirements.
