Searching for Items 

▪To help you find items, use the “Search” feature which is at the top of the Catalog, Standard Order, and Quick Entry tabs.  You can change how the search will work by hitting the drop down arrow in the Search area. The Search normally defaults to “Item Description,” but you can also search by “Class,” “Brand” or “Item Number.”

 

▪To search, enter the text of what you are looking for in the keyword area.  The keyword area accepts full or partial words.  Next hit the Enter key or click the magnifying glass icon to begin the search.

 

▪When you enter a keyword to search, the system will display all items which contain that word.  For example, if you search by “Item Description” and enter “Pickle” as your keyword, all of our items which contain the word “Pickle” anywhere in the product description will be displayed
