Search definitions allow you to specify two different kinds of logical conditions. When you specify search criteria you may need all search criteria to be true in order for a record to be included in the search results. In this situation, the ALL condition indicates that each and every search criteria be true for a record to be included. If any of the criteria within the ALL node is false, the record will not be included in the search result. For example, the search definition shown in [[:Image:fig74.png|Figure 74]] requires that a hazard have a status equal to ''Open'' and a priority equal to ''High''. In this example, both conditions must be true in order for the hazard to be included in the result set. [[Image:fig74ExampleSearchUsingANDCondition.png|center|500px|''Figure 74. Example of a Search Using the ALL AND Condition'']]

In other situations, an item record may only need to satisfy one search criteria to be included in the search results. When this is the case, you should use the ANY OR search condition. The ANY OR condition indicates that only one search criterion must be true.

The ALL AND and ANY OR conditions group the search criteria within the group together. The search conditions can be [[Nested Search | '''nested ''']] within one another to create more complex search criteria. {{NavBox HowTo Search}}
