Clicking on a specific file will cause the system to display details of that record in the fields directly beneath.

Finding Information#
Search Criteria#
A Find button has been provided on some screens to allow you to find a specific record without having to search through a large list of records.By entering a value, such as a last name, in the field and clicking the Find button, the screen will return all records matching that value.
This feature will also allow you to narrow a search if the value returns too many records.
For example, you wish to find an employee named ‘Bob’ who’s last name you can’t remember. You enter ‘Bob’ in the search field, however, the system returns too many records for you to search through. You then remember that the employee you are looking for works in the MIS department. By entering both ‘Bob’ and ‘MIS’ into the field, the system will return only those records that match both criteria.
