Figure 10-9 Catalog Entry Search page
| 2.
| You can search for a catalog entry by using one of more of the fields on the page. To use the Code, Name, Manufacturer part number, Manufacturer, or Category fields, follow this example for the Code field:
|
a. 
Type the relevant search term and select the search method from the pull-down list beside this field:
|
If you know the code, select Exact phrase in the Code list to search for a catalog entry that is an exact match with the code provided. The system performs an exact search. If you type more than one word, such as SKU 12345, then the system only returns search results that match the combination and order of the given text.
|
|
If you know only part of the code, select Matches containing to search for catalog entries that have codes that contain the search criteria. The system performs a fuzzy search. If you type more than one word, such as SKU 12345, then the system returns all matches that contain SKU, 12345, or both. Only one word is needed for a search result.
|
|
Note: For all fields, ensure that the search criteria do not contain any of the following characters: % \ "_ #
|
|
b.
Select the Include short description check box, and use the field to include the short description of the catalog entry in the search.
|
|
c.
In the Catalog field, select the store catalog that contains the catalog entry. If you have more than one catalog for the store and you do not select a catalog, the store's master catalog is used as the default.
|
|
d.
Select Published if the catalog entry description has been published, or Not published if the description has not been published. If you do not select one, the search will ignore the publish flag from the database.
|
|
e.
Select the Type of catalog entry. The default selection is All except SKUs. To narrow the search to a specific type of catalog entry, select Specify types and the appropriate type.
|
|
f.
Select the Number of Search Results to display per page: 25, 50, 100, 250, or 500.
|
|
g.
In the Sort By field, select whether to display the search results by Code or by Name. Code is the default.
|
| 3.
| Click Find. This displays a list of catalog entries in the Product Management dynamic table that match the search criteria. See List catalog entries (Product Management).
