Topic: Searching Inventory Descriptions

How can you easily search inventory descriptions? I have a large assortment of different components I use in the assembly of my products and at times I would like to search descriptions.

Examples-
Part Number - description
50001  - 4-40 x 1/4 stainless pan head screw
50002  - 4-40 x 1/2 stainless pan head screw
50003  - 6-32 x 1/4 stainless pan head screw
50004  - 6-32  zinc plated nut
50005  - 4-30  zinc plated nut

I want to search for all part numbers of all 6-32 hardware 

I know I could run a Stock Check Sheet report but it would be easier if I could just pull up a search on a web page without having to run a report to a spreadsheet - then search the spreadsheet.

Thx!

Re: Searching Inventory Descriptions

FA 2.4 added popup search with a magnifying glass icon to the right of the item/customer/supplier search box.
