− | {{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''.
