You create a search query to search selected fields for specified field values. First you select fields from the subject area that you want to search. For each field, you enter a value that you want to search for within the field.

You identify the fields that you want to be searchable. In the IDD application, users can type their search term in a Search box. The search runs on the fields that you marked as searchable in the business entity. Based on the user role permissions and the selected business entities, the results include records from the business entities that the user can access. Search is often faster than search queries.
