4.1 Basic Search

The basic search is based on a limited set of search criteria and helps retrieve the required reports for your analysis. This search type is very useful if you know the report details such as report name and report number. Only those reports that match the criteria you specify are displayed.

To search for reports using basic search criteria, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Report Summary page. By default, the Basic Search option is displayed.
  2. Enter the following information in the Basic Search pane as tabulated.

    Table 4-1 Basic Search Fields

    Fields Description
    Report ID

    Enter one or more report IDs you want to search. For multiple report IDs, separate the report IDs with a comma (for example, 660, 671). Ensure that you do not enter a space after the comma. Report IDs are not case-sensitive. This overrides other filter criteria.

    For example, if you enter Report ID in search criteria, then this option overrides other details that you have entered previously in other search criteria such as Report Status, Jurisdiction, and so on.NOTE: You can enter a maximum of 50 numeric values in this field.
    Report Name Enter the report name you want to view. This field supports a wildcard search. You can use ‘%’ and _ as wildcard indicators.NOTE: You can enter a maximum of 50 characters in this field
  3. Click Search. Report or reports matching your search criteria are displayed.
