Topic: search in customer reports

Hi:

I am looking at sales reports for customers, in particular,  Customer Balances and Aged Customer Analysis.  When I click on customer to filter for just one customer, there seems to be no searching as it just gives me the entire customer list.  If I am trying to check a customer balance while the customer is on the phone, I really need to be able to do some fast search for him.  Is there something that I have not turned on?

Thanks

Re: search in customer reports

No, you have not turned anything on/off. There have never been search options in these comboboxes. But I will have a look at it if it is possible.

Thanks, Joe

When dealing with larger numbers of either customers or items of inventory, search is vital. 

As an aside, I am curious why space bar triggers search rather than the common  ctrl f

Re: search in customer reports

I am not sure why we have chosen spacebar. Janusz did the search routines, and found that a spacebar was good smile

BTW we are trying to fix this too, but it was a little trickier that we first thought, but we will try.

Joe--

Just wondered if you had time to see if search options would work on these boxes.

Thanks,

Not yet. Have to rewrite part of the form.
