 Finding a Document via Text Elements Locate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

You can only find a document using text elements if you know a text string from the descriptive text. The system reads the short and long texts that describe the document and searches for a character string that you enter.

Procedure

  1. Choose   Document   Find   .

  2. You see the Find Document: Selection criteria .

  3. Select the Texts tab page.

  4. Enter the language you want the system to use to search for the text string.

  5. Enter a search term or text string in the first line. Capitalization is not important because all characters are converted to capitals.

  • The following special characters can be used as wild cards within the string:

* an unspecified number of characters or no character

+ An individual character.

  • You have six lines for variants that you can set as AND links or OR links.

  • If you know character strings that do not occur in the description of the document you are looking for, you can enter them in the last three text lines ( BUT NOT ). Document info records that contain these negative search criteria do not appear in the search result.

Note Note

The class data remain even when you repeat a search. You can recognize text elements by their tab page. The title Texts is indicated by the character (*) .

End of the note.
  1. Confirm your entries. Choose another tab page or start the find function with Execute .

Result

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.
