Search for Registrations (across events and even across accounts) is used by Certain users to find registration records. Search For Registrations lets users specify search criteria and view the search results. In the results, users can click a record to edit that registration.
Search criteria for Registrations
Search criteria for Registrations include the following options:
- search for – Select a data field from the drop-down list, such as Last Name or Organization.
- Operator – Choose an operator, such as the default begins with, to determine how Certain will evaluate the text entered in the box on the right.
- text – Type the text or numbers that users would like to search on in the rightmost data entry field.
- To broaden search results, use a "%" wildcard to return any number of characters.
- Example: Last Name = "Bo%y" returns Borry, Bosey, Bothey, etc.
- By default, all fields are searched with a wildcard at the end, so a search on Organization = "Ford" returns records with Ford, Ford Motor Co, Ford Finance Division, etc.
- Max Records – Set the maximum number of records to be included in the results.
- Records Per Page – (Required) Split the records returned into multiple pages to make the results more manageable.
- Account – Choose which account or sub-account users would like to search for registrations.
- Users can leave the Account option at the default of Any account.
- Note: Users see only the accounts that their username can access.
- Open record in a new tab – If selected, opening a record from the results list shows the record in a new browser tab, instead of the tab where users started the search.
