Company search
|
Use the field immediately above the
company name to search for and select the
company that you want to review or edit.
In addition to
companies created in the
Business Development workspace, the list includes clients and vendors created in
Vision. Note, however, that If a vendor record is linked to a client record in
Vision, the assumption is that they are the same
company, and only the client displays in the list.
On the drop-down list at the left end of the search field, select a standard or custom search:
- Click
ACTIVE to select from a list of active
companies only.
- Click
ALL to select from a list of all
companies (both active and inactive).
- Click
MINE to select from a list of
companies for which you are a member of the team. (You are on
a company's team if you are listed on the Team tab for that
company.)
- Click a previously saved custom search to display the
companies returned by that search. (To see the search criteria for the currently selected custom search in a tooltip, hover over the search name if the search is saved, or over
Custom if it is not saved. Tablet users can display the search in the Custom
Company Search dialog box to see the search criteria.)
- Click
Custom at the bottom of the list to create and save or apply a new custom search.
To further restrict the list of
companies, do either of the following in the search field:
- To search for and display a list of
companies with names, aliases, or IDs that begin with a specific character, type the character in the field and pause.
- To search for and display a list of
companies with names, aliases, or IDs that contain a specific sequence of two or more characters, type the characters in the field and pause.
Tip: If you enter characters in the search field and then want to remove them, click the
icon at the end of the field to clear the field.
