By using the search bar in the Home section on the Paperless website, you may search throughout all the files you ever created.
Simply enter some letters or numbers to display a list of your forms or use one or many of the keywords our system offers you to filter according to your needs.
Field with value
This keyword will allow you to search for forms that are currently in progress or archived according to the field and value you've entered. The system will search throughout all your files to find the specific field and value your searched for.
This keyword will try to do a best match with your entry.
Search by Field
When you use the keyword field with value, you need to enter a field and a value to trigger the search.
You may enter a field with one of these ways:
Full name of the field, for a precise search of a field
Shortened name of the field, for a less precise search of a field, depending on a need you may have or an uncertainty on the exact name
Asterisk (*), to search for all the fields containing the searched value
Search by Value
When you use the keyword field with value, you need to enter a field and a value to trigger the search.
You may enter a value with one of these ways:
Full text value entry, for a precise search of a value
Shortened text value entry, for a less precise search of a value, depending on a need you may have or an uncertainty on the exact value
Full numeric value entry, for a precise search of a value
Shortened numeric value entry, for a less precise search of a value, depending on a need you may have or an uncertainty on the exact value
Asterisk (*), to search for all the values within the searched field
Accurate search in a table
When you use the keyword field with value, you need to enter a field and a value to trigger the search.
If you use multiple times the field with value keyword, you will be able to search accurately for a cell within a table.
You may search for a column in a table, but only if a specific column is accurate too.
For example, in Column A, you have Items and in Column B, you have Compliant/Non Compliant selection.
You may search for a specific item in Column A with: Column A -> Specific Item, then add another criteria with: Column B -> Non Compliant.
This way, you will only see when the specific item you searched for has been non compliant.
Search by numeric range
When you use the keyword field with value, you need to enter a field and a value to trigger the search.
You may search for a specific numeric value, but it is also possible to search for a numeric range by using specific criteria.
You may enter a value with one of these ways:
< (lesser than)
> (greater than)
<= (lesser or equal than)
>= (greater or equal than)
For example, you could search for a temperature that is greater than 4ºC.
You would then find results using this search:
Name of field → >4
