You can only find a document via linked objects if you know at least one object link.
If the document is linked to other SAP objects (for example, material master records), you can shorten the document hit list considerably by entering the keys of the linked object master records.

Object links.
Another tab page appears that contains a tab page for each SAP object type.
Note
A tab page is not displayed for each SAP object type. This restriction is set with the entry of document data on the tab page
Document data
. If you have restricted the search for one or several document types the system only reports the SAP object types that were chosen in Customizing of the document types.
Enter the key fields for the objects on each tab page.
Note
The object type (for example,
Material
) is located on the tab page. As soon as you have entered an object for the document search the system adds the icon
(Links exist)
to the text for the object type.
This link is an AND- link. The system only reports documents that are linked to all of the listed objects.
Example
You can enter several individual objects (for example, material masters TUBING-01 and TUBING-02) for each SAP object (for example, material). You can also enter other SAP objects (for example, Equipment E-1).
The system only reports documents that are linked to both materials AND with the equipment.
The object links remain even when you repeat a search. You can recognize object data on the superior tab page
Object links
. The title
Object links
are indicated by the character

Confirm your entries. Choose another tab page or start the find function with
Execute
.
You see the search result in the form of a list containing all the documents that meet the search criteria you entered.
From this list, you can change and display documents and display original application data.
