Note:  Some roles are restricted from searching for employees, and search results can be limited by security-administration.  

Advanced Search

Advanced searches use conditional statements of specific criteria from master and detail fields. The Advanced search allows you to search for applicants using "and/or" logic for many payroll detail records.

Search by up to six conditions using Boolean logic (and/or). The ‘Or’ condition expands your search, while the ‘And’ condition limits your search by the defined criteria.

Available conditions are field values for the following system tables:

• PER_ASSIGNMENT
• PER_DEMOGRAPHICS
• PER_EMPLOYMENT
• PER_MASTER

To return to the simple search, click on the Simple tab.

1. To open an advanced search, click on the binoculars' icon, and click on the search window's Advanced tab.
2. Define one or more conditions. For each condition,
   select Condition Logic (And, Or),
   Table,
   Field,
   Operator (=, <>, >, <, >=, <=, Begins, Ends, or Contains), and
   enter the corresponding value. To toggle between a text field and a drop-down list, click on the ellipses button

3. Click on the next Condition number to define an additional condition.
4. To run the search, click on the button for Search!
