Search not working

Post by simon » 01 Sep 2016, 08:29

In one of the companies I have set up on Sage 50 the search functionality doesn't work on the Transactions screen.

For example, if I type in a transaction number I know to exist, nothing is returned.

I have tried reindexing, but that has had no effect.

Has anyone else experienced similar? And know how to fix?

Do transactions show on the list.
If you search for some thing you can see can it be found.

Transactions show on the list before doing a search. But when I enter a search term and hit return (or click on the magnifying glass), no transactions are shown.

Have you checked there is nothing in the filter/search.

When you use the search box, any criteria on the main filter/search also get applied.

Yes, I've checked, no filters applied (no red no-entry signs are showing).

The filter/search WILL be applied if there is anything in it, even if it is not applied right now it will be as soon as you type something in the search box.

Please go to the filter/search and clear it then try again.

Thanks Bruce!

It wasn't obvious that it would work like that.

Much appreciated.
