LocatingRecordsinthePartsList
The list may be sorted by any of the column headers. Clicking a column header will sort the parts in order based on that field. The first click on the header field will sort the parts in ascending order. Clicking on the arrow will sort the parts in descending order and change the graphic to an arrow pointing down.
Lists can be filtered by entering data into the textbox fields under the header. Click Enteron your keyboard to set the filters you have entered. Also, if you click outside the filter (after entering a value) the system will automatically refresh the list. The sort and filters are saved and used the next time the list is opened based on your user login. For example, if you just want to view parts that begin with the word Jet, type Jet in the description filter, and click Enter. Once a filter or group of filters is applied, the list will redisplay based on that criteria and will indicate in the bottom right corner the number of records that matched the filter criteria. Filters are not case sensitive.
To remove all filters, click the ManageFilter button and then click RemoveSelectedFilter to view all the parts.
