You can search for BW objects using the search function, which is a sub-function of the open dialog box. The following options are available for searching:
The advanced search in attributes of the BW object is based on the BW metadata search. For more information, seeBW Metadata Search.
The search function is part of the open dialog box and can be called by choosing (Find) in the toolbar in the left side of the dialog box.
Select the search method you want to use from the dropdown box:
You can enter your search text beside the selected search criterion. If you select Last Changed On as search criterion, you can specify a "from" and "to" time period. You can choose the calendar icon to select the time period from the calendar provided.
Additional search criteria are available, depending on the BW object. For example:
If you search using Query Used, Web Template Used, or Web Item Used as search criteria, the search results list all BW objects that use the specified query, Web template, or Web item.
You are using the BEx Web Application Designer and want to search for a specific Web template. You select Query Used as a search criterion and enter the name of the relevant query. The search results list all Web templates that use this specific query.
The results that match your search criteria are displayed in the lower area of the dialog box. You double-click one of the search results to open the corresponding BW object.
