Performing a Blocker Search on the EDM

To perform a blocker search for an object profile, you need to specify identifying information for the object on the Blocker Search page. This search might return several profiles.

2. Select the option button next to Blocker Search.

3. Enter the search criteria for the object you want to find.

   For more information about criteria combinations for blocker searches, see Advanced Search. See your system administrator if you do not know the criteria combinations defined for the blocker search.

   Note –

   The system administrator can choose whether to display the EUID field or the local ID and system fields on this page. Any values entered into these optional fields take precedence over information entered into other search fields. For example, if an invalid EUID is entered but valid first and last names are entered, no results are returned due to the invalid EUID. The EUID field takes precedence over the local ID and system fields.
