Basic Search Field Controls

Greentree search fields can be identified visually by a magnifying glass on the right side of the search field.

Click the magnifying glass to display a list of items that you can select for entry into the field. You can use the arrow keys and page up or down keys to scroll in the list, and pressing Enter or clicking selects the item on the list to return it to the field. These fields types are primarily used to return masterfiles to a form — for example, customers, accounts, items, and the like.

Click the calendar icon beside a field to display a calendar. Select a date.

Click the double arrows move backwards and forwards through years, and click the single arrows to move backwards and forwards through months in the selected year. The current day is highlighted when the dropdown first displays for a empty field. Double click or press Enter on the selected date to return it to the field.

Note: You can't view the calendar for date fields that are read only.
