Toggle fuzzy searching, a feature for finding strings that are similar – but not identical to – the full-text search term entered
Set the maximum number of search results returned by the system
Set the maximum number of search results displayed per page
Filter the display setting for generic materials (SAP for Retail systems only)
Set the sorting criteria for search results
Create related plants
Hide plants with zero stock
Select a stock availability method (available to purchase or unrestricted use) for plants
