It is possible that following a search for specifications, the search result, that is the set of hits, does not contain the specifications you are searching for or it contains too many specifications. This procedure describes how you extend, refine, or reduce the set of hits.
You have run a specification search , executed a query , or loaded a set of hits and are located on the hit list screen.
Choose one of the following steps:
Choose if you want to extend the set of hits.
Choose if you want to refine the set of hits.
Choose if you want to reduce the set of hits.
A screen appears where you can extend, refine, or reduce the set of hits by entering other search criteria.
Enter the search criteria for the specifications by which you want to extend, refine, or reduce the set of hits and confirm your entries
.
Note
Instead of entering search criteria you can also execute a query or load a set of hits. Any additional search criteria you enter will not then be taken into account.
In addition to the specifications already in the hit list, the set of hits contains the specifications that fulfill the search criteria entered in the second step.
The set of hits now contains only the specifications that also fulfill the search criteria entered in the second step.
The specifications that fulfill the search criteria entered in the second step were removed from the set of hits.
