Searching for Accounts

Access the Account Master Word Search form.

Before you use the Account Master Word Search form, you must run the Build Account Master Word Search Table program (R0901WS).

Search Word

Enter one or more words used for a search. You must use the full word. If entering a string of words, the word string must be in the exact order as what you want to find. This program is not case-sensitive. You can enter either uppercase or lowercase characters. You cannot use a wildcard.

The Account Master Word program displays a list of all of the accounts containing the word or string of characters. For example, if you enter accounts payable, the program displays all of the accounts that contain the word accounts and all of the accounts that contain the word payable.

The Account Master Word program also displays accounts that contain words similar to the full name of the account. For example, if you wanted to search for an account that contains the words accounts payable, you could enter Accts Pay, Accts, A, P, or A/P. If these words are in the Word Search Equivalence table (F91011), the program recognizes them as words equivalent to accounts payable and displays the accounts for which you are searching. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system provides a list of equivalent words, and you can add your own words to this list.

You can also add, change, or delete from the list of words that you want the program to ignore. For example, the Account Master Word program is already set to ignore A, About, and After. If you enter one of these words by itself into the Search Word field, the program ignores it. The program also ignores symbols such as / and %.
