The Search search box at the top of the screen allows users you to search globally for all people, whether applicants, students, alumni, faculty or facultystaff. The search box will search the entire system, regardless of any permissions that
may limit the user to a specific module of the system. Users must be in the faculty/staff module and belong to a permission group with permission #1242 to see the search box.
The search box can be configured to search for name and/or ID or just ID. For institutions with a high record countmany person records, Campus Café Cafe recommends setting the box to only search ID to ensure improve system performance. The way the search box behaves is set through the Custom Control /MSParm " SEARCHBOX". Setting the value to Y will search by Name and/or ID. Setting to N will search by ID.
