Operations Menu - Stock Movement - Item Search
This page describes the 'Item Search' function on the
Operations menu in the Stock Movement record window. If you are using iOS or Android, the 'Item Search' function is on the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon).
--- You can use the 'Item Search' function to search for Items that you can then add to the Stock Movement. This function is therefore an alternative to the 'Paste Special' feature. Place the insertion point in the Item field in any row and then select 'Search' from the Operations menu (Windows/macOS) or Tools menu (iOS/Android). The following window opens:

- Search for
- Enter here the string (e.g. part of an Item Number or Name) that you are looking for. You must make an entry in this field, otherwise no search will be carried out.
- Classification
- Paste Special
Item Classifications setting, Sales Ledger
- If you enter an Item Classification here, the search for the string that you specified in the field above will be restricted to Items belonging to that Classification.
- Search In
- Specify the field in which you want to search.
Press [Run] to activate the search. A report will be printed to screen, listing the Items found. If you click (Windows/macOS) or tap (iOS/Android) on an Item Number in the report, the Item will be added to the Goods Receipt in the first empty row. You can keep the report open and click or tap on more Item Numbers to have more Items added to the Stock Movement. You can also use the 'Reopen Report Specification' function on the Operations menu in the report window to search for different Items (iOS/Android users should use < to go back to the report specification window).
