Description

Use the Order Choice Search page to select the desired order choice from the list of order choices that matched your search or to search for a location. When you search for order choices using this page, the system searches the entire database for the order choice. When you search from the Order Choice Pick List page, the system only searches the Order Choice Lists for active order choices that match your search. If there were no matches to your search, the system alerts you to that fact. Select Cancel to return to the preceding page where you may perform another search, if desired. You may also access the Miscellaneous Order Choice page, if you access the Order Choice Search page when creating or editing an order, to enter an order choice that is not in your database.

Note

The Order Choice Search page contains a list of up to 10 order choices. If the list is longer than one page, use the page number links, located below the list of order choices, to navigate through the list. If there are more page links than can fit on the page at once, the system displays a field. Enter a number in this field and press the Enter key on the keyboard to immediately open the selected page.

If there were no matches or you wish to search again, enter one or more characters in the search field. You may enter an asterisk in the search field to search for all order choices that are available for your host location.
