Opening the search panel

All three reach the same data — pick whichever feels faster.

Searching by typing

Type a few characters. The panel matches across page names, module names, and (for the active category) employee or department names.

employees       matches the "Employees" page, "Employee Documents", etc.
salary          matches any page whose name or description contains "salary"

Filtering by category — prefix syntax

Start your input with a special character to focus the search on a single category:

When a prefix is active, a small category chip (e.g. Employee) appears before the input. The prefix character itself is converted into the chip, so the input area stays clean and only shows your actual keyword.

Clearing or switching the category

• Press Backspace with empty input → removes the chip, back to general search
• Click the × on the chip → same as above
• Click the × on the right of the input → clears your typed text only (the chip stays)

Recent items

When you open the panel without typing anything, the top section shows your Recent list — pages and records you visited recently. The order combines two signals:

• How recently you used it — newer items rank higher
• How often you’ve used it — frequent items rank higher

So items you use a lot stay near the top even after a few days idle; occasional one-off visits naturally sink over time.

⚠️ Recent data is stored on your current device / browser only. Switching devices or clearing browser data starts a fresh list. Recent is not synced to the cloud and is never visible to other users.

Keyboard shortcuts inside the panel

Can’t find what you’re looking for?

• Check for typos in your keyword
• Try a plain search without a prefix — maybe the target is in another category
• ? help articles aren’t live yet — for product guidance, contact HR / IT
• Still nothing? You may not have permission to access that feature. Request access from your admin and try again.
