Keyword Search
When doing a keyword search the Procurement application searches the full text of the Procurement application catalog for a single keyword or using combinations of keywords and more complex search syntax.
- Click in the keyword text box, and type any word, part of a word, or logical phrase you want to find in an item name or description.
The Procurement application allows complex keyword searches, using Wild Card Characters and combinations.
For example: pen OR pencil
- To perform a combined keyword and Detail Search of the catalog, also use the Search Criteria text entry boxes, to add search criteria.
You may specify a value for one or more of:
- manufacture
- part number
- supplier
- Click [Find].
The Procurement application displays a list of all items meeting all of your criteria in a Search Results table below.
- If a long list is presented, use the VCR-style controls to Navigate Lists.
- If too many items are retrieved, use the Search Criteria text entry boxes, drop-down menu and radio button to Refine Results and reduce the number of items.
