Fields with magnifier icon
Fields that provide a search mask are indicated by a magnifier icon and the microhelp.
The magnifier icon appears as soon as the cursor is placed into the field. Clicking on this icon opens a search mask, which can also be accessed via F2 or double click.
Quick search
Some frequently used fields provide an instant search.
When you type in a letter, the application automatically opens a list with entries that complete the word.
Typing in more letters will narrow down the result.
Activate the Quick search
The instant search can be activated or deactivated per employee in the Employee Options. The setting takes effect after another login to the program.
