Finding Items

Item Finder allows you to search across the Eos database for Items and Packing Entries based on various direct and related criteria.

Item Finder is accessed via the drop down arrow next to Jobs (red arrow).

When you have accessed the Item Finder screen, you can choose which search criteria you would like to use by selecting one of the tabs at the top of the screen. You can then enter the specific search details using the text boxes and dropdown menus provided. You can make a search based on more than one criterion at a time by simply navigating to another tab and entering more details before you click the Search button.

Available search criteria include:

Item/Packing: Search information directly relating to Items/Packing Entries, such as Description or Supplier contact details (You’ll notice that this tab looks almost identical to the Item screen you use to add Items to a Shipment).
