Finding and Editing an Item

To locate a particular item within your inventory:

 

1.  Select Items Find from the Inventory menu. 

2.  Scan the barcode, enter the item number, or provide other details in the Find Item window tabs as described below to search for an item.  As always, the Presets feature allows you to save search parameters for future use.  See the section entitled Presets for more information.

 

Fields and options in the General tab include:

Returns items in the specified category, whether by ID number or selected from the drop-down list.   

Generic Desc

Returns items with a matching description.

Keywords

By ID

Use this section to query by item ID number.

Item#

Returns items with a matching current item ID.  Using this search field will cause The Edge to ignore all other search filters.

Old Item#

Returns items with a matching pre-conversion ID number. To ensure that The Edge looks for only legacy item numbers, put a period (.) in front of the number, especially if the legacy number has any dashes.

Old Barcode

Returns items with a matching pre-conversion barcode number. 

Honor Other Criteria

Allows you to include these criteria without nullifying other filters; otherwise, searching by Item # will cause The Edge to ignore all other search filters.

View

Contains a drop-down menu with options for images to appear in results.

Show Checkboxes

Returns a checkbox with each record in the results.  The checkbox can be used to indicate which records to perform various actions on:  Edit, Add, Delete, etc.

RFID

Contains a drop-down menu with options for filtering based on whether items have an RFID tag.

Collections

Returns items included in selected collections.  For more about collections, see the section entitled Collections.

 

     Filter parameters are cumulative.  That is, the more parameters you enter, the fewer items will be returned.  For example, if you enter a category and a keyword, only items with matches in BOTH fields will be returned.  This applies to parameters on all the tabs.

     Because this information is specific, if you search by ID, no other search criteria will be used.

 

3.  Complete the General tab fields, if any, as needed to retrieve the appropriate data.
