Transaction search supported by Activities context application

You can now search for transaction-related activities in the Activities context application. A Document Type field was added to the Search panel on each tab of the expanded Activities window. You can select Order Entry, Purchase Order, Warehouse Transfer, or None. When you select a value other than None, a document number lookup field becomes available. Use the Document Type field in conjunction with document number field to search for activities associated with a specific document number. You can also use the Document Type field independently of the document number field.

When you access the Activities window from a transaction-related function, default values are displayed for the document type and document number. The default values are based on the open transaction. When you access the Activities window in a function that is related to customer or vendor entities, the Document Type field is blank. Leave the field blank, or select None, to include all document types in the search results.

Another Activities improvement is available in the December release. When you access the Activities context application from the Purchase Order Line Detail page in Vendor Invoice Center Entry, purchase order-related content is now available. Previously, in-context information at the header and line levels was not provided to the application for the page.
