Searching for Documents and Reports

You can initiate a search by entering keywords in a text box located in the upper right of all Explore Repository screens, and then either pressing Enter or clicking the Search button.

To search for a document or a report:

1. Enter a keyword in the Search text box.

   A suggestion feature is available that spell-checks text and suggests alternative keywords if available.

   The search results are displayed on a separate page and include:

   • File name (clicking on this launches the document)

   • Description

   • Document type

   • Last modified date

   • File path (double-clicking on this launches the folder)

   If an Planning result is selected, a Planning tab is launched and supporting detail is displayed.

2. Optional: Order the search results according to Score or Last modified date.

   By default, search results are sorted by score. A document’s score or relevance is determined by how many times the keyword appears in the document and how many other keywords are in the document. For example, a document where the keyword appears three times but only has five words scores higher than a document where the keyword appears 10 times but with 1,000 other keywords.

3. Optional: Filter the search results according to document type, modified date, or publish location.
