Select company

If there are more than one company in the system, companies must first be selected before you can search. The company is selected at the top of the page by moving companies from the Available companies box to the Selected companies box

By using the simple arrows, selected companies are moved and by using the double arrows all companies are moved. If only one company exists, this will be automatically selected.

Enter search criteria

• Search is done by entering values for the known fields. One or more field values in combination can be specified.
• "Wildcards" can be used and entered as % or * which symbolizes one or more unknown characters. E.g. all invoices from a particular supplier where only part of the supplier name is known can be searched as follows: *Shell*. The search will list all invoices from suppliers whose names contain Shell.
• If you want to search for split invoices, enter *[_]* in the invoice number field.
• If a search is to be done that requires a field to contain no value, this can be specified by entering a minus sign in the field.

Exclude values

If you want to exclude certain values when searching, for example you want to see invoices from a vendor but not from a certain date range. Click on the gray symbol after the field name and the symbol changes color to indicate that the field values are excluded.

The search result is shown to the right of the window in the form of a list:

The on-screen search result is limited to 1000 invoices and if the search includes more invoices, this message is displayed above the list: Search result: 1000 invoices shown

If you want to see all the invoices, select the Send to Excel check box and then get all the invoices in the same list, with the columns you have selected on the screen.
