Purpose
This guide outlines how to leverage Alchemy’s search capabilities to quickly locate any process, record, or task related information within the system, allowing for easy access to system data.
There are two search types that can be used:
- Quick Search
- System-Wide Search
The use of Quick Search will display results in the system for any process, record, task or stage name that match the keywords in the search field. System-Wide Search will return results for all keyword-related items in the system, including titles and content within record fields.
Quick Search
- In the left-hand navigation panel, click on the Search field that contains a magnifying glass icon.
