About Default Values in Search Fields

Depending on how your administrator sets up the search layout for a record type for your user role, the search fields for that record type might be automatically populated with default values in the following locations:

• The Targeted Search applet in the Action bar.
• The Advanced Search criteria form.
• The criteria section of the New List page when you create a new list.

  NOTE: When you refine an existing list, the list of search fields and the conditions and values for those search fields are determined by the current list filter.

NOTE: For the Activity record type, the search fields might be automatically populated in the Targeted Search applet in the Action bar and in the Advanced Search criteria form when you search for appointments or tasks, but the search fields are never preselected or populated when you create a new list for the Activity record type.

You can change the condition and the value for any search field.
