{{Reference guide header|Data search can be achieved by ''running saved searches'', ''using item filters'' or the ''search engine''.
 
An ''item filter'' (land, activity, accident, etc.) returns a list of all corresponding items that were entered in IMSMANG. The results list can be sorted out by paring down the ''filter criteria'' or by ''picking'' other ''column headings''.
 
The ''search engine'' allows for ''search definitions'' that correspond to more than one ''criterion'' and/or ''criteria'' node(s). Search definitions can have ''linked items'' (activities linked to a land, victims linked to an accident, etc.). A ''criterion'' can be defined by paring down its ''attributes'', ''operators'' and ''values''.
 
Searches defined with the search engine can be ''saved'' in the ''Saved Searches''.

:The [[Image:sfD11Advanced Search]] functionality allows for search definitions that are built with more than one criterion, AND/OR and linked items. The criteria may also be grouped into advanced AND/OR groups. It is also possible to use SQL statement, geographical search and subobjects (e.g. which Ordnance was reported). [[Saved Searches Window|Saved Searches]] are defined with the ''Advanced search'' functionality and are saved in the database for later use. This enables users to create search definitions which may used by all users.pngSaved searches are also input to [[Producing Reports Using IMSMANG|500pxreports]].
