Operations Section

Using the buttons available in the Operations header bar, you can toggle the options in the drop-down-list box between alphabetical and chronological order. Chronological order represents these items in the required configuration order. For example, you must have stores set up before you can configure departments within the store. Therefore, Store is listed before Department when the drop-down-list box options are sorted in chronological order. By default, the options are listed in alphabetical order.

The Operations section contains a drop-down-list box, which allows you to perform searches across your organization for particular entity types. You can search all entity types supported by the Configuration Editor.

Each entity type has a set of associated filters. You can apply filters to make your search more specific and to return only those entities that have the specific values you provided. The filters that are displayed in the Operations section are configurable, see Customizing the Editor.

If you apply a filter from the Operations section after you have performed an advanced search or while you have items selected in the location tree, the Results section only displays (of the selected or returned items) entities that pass all of the search, selection, and filter criteria.

The Go button allows you to start the filtering process with the criteria you have specified.

The Clear button allows you to clear all filter values and refresh the Results table.
