For individual accounts, you can enter the first name and/or last name.
For all account types, you can also enter a fragment of a name, or an ID.
As of SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP CRM 7.0, or with lower back-end releases and an SAP HANA database, you can search for names containing your search string anywhere in the name. With lower back-end releases and other databases, you can only search for names starting with your search string.
Offline Use on Mobile Devices
As of SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP CRM 7.0, you can use the app offline. The following restrictions apply when using the app in offline mode:
You cannot view account images.
You cannot upload or view attachments.
You cannot change marketing attributes, you can only add and delete them.
You cannot view ERP quotations or ERP sales orders for an account.
You cannot navigate to the details of tasks, appointments, leads, and opportunities.
You cannot create appointments and opportunities.
If you run the app in offline mode, the app stores data on the mobile device. When you have a network connection again, all data that was entered is sent to the back-end when you next save. Data is synchronized once an hour (including retrieving data from the CRM back-end). You can also trigger synchronization from the user options or by swiping down in the account list. When data is sent to the back end, it is saved even if the same data has also been changed in the back-end in the meantime.
If you want to deploy the app for offline use, you need to implement and configure it, then package it for installation on mobile devices. For more information about packaging, see Preparing SAP Fiori Apps for Offline Use.
