Search for Transactions
The search feature in AuditSafe is powerful and easy to use.
You can search for values within multiple categories. The search finds matching records even if a category (or column) is not displayed. You can hide or show categories by selecting them from the Settings dialog box.
Use the following options to initiate a search action:
- Use the Keyword option to search for a term in all of the categories.
- Searching for values or keywords within the same category is an
OR search.
For example: Search Status for In Progress or Completed to find all transactions that contain those values.
- Searching for values between 2 or more categories is an
AND search. You can combine the two search-types to narrow your results.
For example: Search Status for PROCESSINGORCOMPLETED, AND search Audit Event for Request Received.
The system automatically segments your query into OR and AND searches as seen in the following example:
