Searching for a Company or a Branch

The Company and Branch Selection menu can display a limited number of companies and branches because of size and design limitations. If you have access to multiple companies and branches but the Company and Branch Selection menu doesn't display a company you want to access because of insufficient space in the menu, you can search for the specific company or branch by its name.

You search for a company or a branch by typing its name in the search box of the Company and Branch Selection menu. The system initiates the matching process and displays the search results as soon as you begin typing in this box.
