Searching for Objects Using Index Data and Basic Parameters
Valid for: enaio webclient version 8.50 SP1
If you have information about folders, registers, and documents to be searched, it's best to use the object search. Restrict the search using the index data, the basic parameters, and/or the full-text search of the objects. All search terms for objects, i.e. index data, basic parameters and full text, can be combined.
The full-text search in the index data and in the basic parameters is only available if the object type supports the full-text search.
The searches are executed via the index data forms. The result is shown as a hit list.

- Click
in the main menu.
-
Select object type.
The search form will open.
-
If you want to include the basic parameters in the search, click
in the workspace header.
the input fields for basic parameters are shown.
The administrator can disable the feature system-wide or restrict entry to own user name in the fields Creator, Editor, and Owner.
- Entering search terms.
- Click Search.
The search is executed and the hit list is shown.

The form for a search has the same fields, field properties, and catalog buttons as the form that is filled in when creating objects. The requirements and restrictions for entries in the form fields also apply here.
If you leave all the fields in the search form blank, all archive objects of the same type will be shown.

You can give the check boxes in the search form a neutral status. In this case, they will not be evaluated.

When designing the form, the administrator can also configure whether the search form entries are case sensitive.

You can also enter placeholders into the search form fields:
- ? stands for exactly one arbitrary character
- * stands for any number of arbitrary characters
Text fields can be configured in enaio client such that the placeholder * is automatically appended. This setting also applies to enaio webclient.

If multiple entries can be selected from a list catalog, you will find a Or and an And button beneath the list. Using these buttons, you can define how multiple values will be logically combined for the search. In the case of OR the hit list contains all objects indexed to at least one of the entries; in the case of AND all objects indexed to all selected entries.

In the date fields and date/time fields, you can enter either an exact date or an expression according to the following pattern:
01/01/2015-01/01/2016 | All date information in this period |
<01/01/2015 | All prior date information |
<=01/01/2015 | All prior or equal date information |
>01/01/2015 | All subsequent date information |
>=01/01/2015 | All subsequent or equal date information |
This also applies to entries in time fields.
If you click in a date field or date/time field, a calendar opens.
By clicking on the interval button, date fields, date/time fields, and time fields are divided into two interval fields from-to.
If you only enter a date in a from field, the system will search for date information greater than or equal to the date entered. If you only enter a date in a to field, the system will search for date information less than or equal to the date entered.

In number fields enter either the exact number or an expression according to the following pattern:
1-4 | All numbers from 1 to 4 |
<4 | All numbers less than 4 |
<=4 | All numbers less than or equal to 4 |
>4 | All numbers greater than 4 |
>=4 | All numbers greater than or equal to 4 |
By clicking on the interval button, number fields are divided into two interval fields from-to.
If you only enter a number in the from field, the system will search for all numbers greater than or equal to the number entered. If you only enter a number in the to field, the system will search for all numbers less than or equal to the number entered.

When searching in table fields, the search will search in the column in which you enter the search expression.
