Mod a search screen?

Yahoo Archive
1
Just right click on the field you want to search from (ordernum, custnum,
etc) and select "Quick Search Entry".

Create a new search and mark it as 'base default'.

Tada! You got custom search in 5 minutes!

Hi all!

I tried to searches but come up with just so much unrelated posts, I thought I'd ask. We have the Employee search screen in the Nonconformance form where I would like to hide a column from the grid. I have done this with grids on other forms, but I can't seem to get to customize the search form. Is this even possible? Many thanks in advance!!

Regards,

Kurt

In E9 (probably true to V8 too) you can create a quick search and then
remove the "base search" from the context menu to force the quick search
to always be used.

The best solution that I have heard from this group is to just create
a Quick Search to your liking and make it the default search.

Write a BAQ that returns the data you are looking for,
Without the columns you don't want, publish as quick search and replace the
base search with it.

If you have a quick search against a field e.g. Customer.CustID on one page e.g.
Customer Maintenance, you can't have a different one on another screen such as
Order Entry.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!!

I have tried a custom search box and it still came up with the column I don't want. I used

whereClause = "EmpStatus = 'A'"

Dim dsEmpData As DataSet = Epicor.Mfg.UI.FormFunctions.SearchFunctions.listLookup(oTrans, "EmpBasicAdapter", recSelected, True, whereClause)

to get the search box using a custom button. This is the only code I have to create a search box. I also did create a BAQ that looks like it comes up with the fields I want, but as per the suggestions, I don't know how to put the custom search and the BAQ together. I spend the majority of my time on VB and .NET projects and the Vantage mods are a here and there thing, so I am still newbie-ing my way around. What I've seen, the Help section wasn't much help.

Again, I appreciate any help and thanks again for your suggestions!!!

Regards,

Kurt

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!
I did create a new search but it had the same columns in the grid. I also created a BAQ and that has what I needed. However, I haven't figured out how to bring these two together. The only code I have for creating a search is:

whereClause = "EmpStatus = 'A'"

Dim dsEmpData As DataSet = Epicor.Mfg.UI.FormFunctions.SearchFunctions.listLookup(oTrans, "EmpBasicAdapter", recSelected, True, whereClause)

I put this in a custom button, which works, but it still gives me the extra column that I want to get rid of. How do you take the BAQ and make it usable for a custom search box?

Thank you again for everyone's help!!!

Kurt

I'm finally getting back to this after a little project detour. I still don't see how I can change the results of a search. I created a BAQ that returns the fields that I want for the search results as was previously suggested, but I can't see how to apply this to a search. I have a separate button that opens a search screen, but how do I incorporate the BAQ to this screen? I would like to change the main search result grid. Sorry if I seem to newbie, but I really am more of a VB and .net coder. A lot of this is tough to figure out. Again,what I'm trying to do is in the employee search in the Nonconformance screen, the results return 4 fields including the employee phone numbers from the empbasic table. I would like everything returned except for the phone numbers. Can anyone give me insight on how I can remove the phone number field...using the BAQ or other means(or is it even possible?)? Thanks for any help!!

Kurt
