Working with Search Lists

   Overview   

Search lists are returned when more than one record matches entered search criteria. The lists can be used to retrieve similar records for view or update.

The search pages for each component in the classic view provide criteria to limit records to use or allow you to retrieve the first 300 records in the database if you do not specify criteria.

In this article, you will learn how to use the controls within any Classic View search results list.
