Notes on the use of the Find Tool
•If the search results in more than one record, a list of all matches is displayed to select from.
•A single record match will be directly opened in its Conquest form.
•If the Find Tool is invoked from the Asset Explorer, only the Asset, Action, Defect and Log Book options are enabled. If the search results in a single record match, the Asset Explorer hierarchy will expand to ensure the match record is shown in the Asset Explorer list and the record will be selected.
•The Find Tool remembers the Search Field and Match values from the previous search for each Conquest object.
