Use the Finder to search lists of codes maintained in or used by Sage 300 ERP programs (such as document numbers, terms codes, and account set codes). You can use menu commands in the Finder to help you search, as follows:

• On the Settings menu, select Color options to highlight a field using color for the text or for the background.
• On the Settings menu, select Field Name as Column Heading to use field descriptions or internal field names as column headings.
• On the Settings menu, use Columns options to specify columns that appear in the table. 
• On the Global Settings menu, select the Go to Filter First option if you want the Finder to display the same filter settings you specified on the Find By list the next time you search this type of record.

You can also use the Auto Search option to locate a record quickly in a long list. To do this, select Auto Search and the criteria by which you want to search, and then begin typing the characters that start or are contained in the field you are searching on.

Note: Records that appear in the Finder are restricted by any selection criteria you apply to this field. If you cannot find the record you are looking for with the Finder or the navigation buttons, check the Finder to see whether any criteria are being used to limit the selection. If necessary, remove the selection criteria. (For more information, see Setting Finder Criteria)
