5.1.21. Search functionality

This feature is used to find information for a specific account. When elements are searched the output will provide information that is linked to the first parent of type vendor or customer account based on the selected element from the left tree.

Elements to be found by selection type:

• Vendor: accounts (vendors, customers, containers), servers, services, locations
• Customer: containers, printers, input ports, servers, services, locations, authentication providers, jobs, users, groups
  

* The limit for the found results is 40 for each category. In case more results are required the search should be more specific. The exception here are users and groups for which the returned result has 20 entries for each authentication provider.

*Some found items like accounts, printers, input ports, servers, services, locations, authentication providers have a redirect link to go to the desired element.

*The minimum number of characters needed for search functionality is 3.
