Global Search is a system-wide search, that returns the top 5 results matching your search from across the Orion system, categorised by the categories the results were found in.
Searching Tip - If you're a bit less certain on the specific details of the record you're searching for, we recommend to go search within the appropriate list screen. For example, if you're just looking for a recent invoice but can't exactly recall the customer's name, we would recommend going into the Invoice History list to start your search.
