Searching for Values 

Use

A search function to search for specific single values is available in the input help dialog box.

When you use this search function, the system searches in all values for a characteristic. If there are more values than the number of values that can be displayed in the input help dialog box, the search also incorporates those values that are not displayed.

Prerequisites

You have called the input help dialog box using one of the following options:

●      In the context menu for a characteristic, structure, or structural component, you have selected Filter → Select Filter Value in the Web application.

●      From the filter pane of the Web application, you can navigate to the relevant characteristic or structure by selecting Edit in the dropdown list box.

●      You can navigate to the input help from the variable screen by choosing the  icon in the input field for the relevant characteristic.

Procedure
