Searching and Printing Knowledge Base topics

When searching for a particular subject, type the search criteria into the Search area of the Knowledge Base (e.g. if searching for information about "Payroll," enter Payroll into the Search area provided. This will list all topics within Preceda that contains the word "Payroll").

If the user wants to search the exact phrase or combination of words (e.g. Company Details) and would like to omit from the search results the single words from the phrase, he/she may enter the search keywords within quotation marks (e.g. "company details"). This will display all topics that contain the exact phrase within Preceda.

• Use the Remove Search Highlight button to remove the highlighted words.
• Each field within a topic is represented by a Drop-down field . This means that by expanding the field name, information about the field is revealed.

• Using the Expand All/ Collapse All button will reveal information about all fields within the selected topic and close all currently opened drop-downs, respectively.

Print

• Clicking this icon prints the topics or KB Page you are currently in.
