Search For Profiles

Search For Profiles

To search for Profiles, specify your search criteria and click Submit to see the results. In the results, click a record to edit that profile.

Data field to search

The "Search for" data field is selected from a drop–down list. Examples include Reg Code, First Name, Last Name, etc.

Operator

The "Operator" is chosen to determine how Certain will evaluate the text you type in the box to the right. Example: the default "begins with".

Search text

Type the text or numbers to search on in the rightmost data entry field.

Wildcard usage

To broaden your search, use a "%" as a wildcard to return any number of characters. For example, Last Name = "Bo%y" will return Borry, Bosey, Bothey, etc.

Wildcard default behavior

By default, all fields are searched with a wildcard at the end, so that a search on Organization = "Ford" will return records with "Ford", "Ford Motor Co", "Ford Finance Division", etc.

Max Records

The maximum number of records to be returned in the search results.

Records Per Page

Records per page enables you to split the records returned into multiple pages, to make the results more readable.

Account

Choose which account or sub-account you would like to search for profiles, or leave it at the default of Any account. Note: You see only the accounts that your username can access.

Open record in a new tab

If selected, then when you open a record from the results list you will see it in a new browser tab, instead of the one in which you started the search. Note: Your selection or non-selection is retained as the default for when you next use this Profile Search.

Sorting and navigation

When the results appear, you may click on any column header to sort by that column in ascending order.

Use the Next xx »» and «« Previous links to navigate through results that have been broken into pages by the Records Per Page option.
