Draft.

SY: “The new Search Results Grid View affords new opportunities for working more efficiently with search results. Easily sort your results by one or more columns in ascending or descending order. Pin or hide columns as needed. And with the new enhanced data export utility, you can customize which fields of data you need to make custom report generation easier than ever. To take it even further, users now have the power to control how they work, as all of the sorting and display options can be customized to the individual user’s needs.”

The table format, familiar in the desktop client when you run a Search, is available in browser-based GlobalSearch, but with a few more features. The Grid View presents your search results in a compact list to efficiently view many records at a glance. No need to scroll to see the data you need, you can sort, resize, and pin columns how you need them. Use the View tabs to dynamically group information based on its workflow stage or on who a task is assigned to.

With your search results arranged the way you want them, now you can quickly update your records right from the list without opening the Document Viewer (with the proper permissions). Use the search and replace feature when you need to update multiple records.


These can stay here or go on separate child pages...
