Explanation:

• The search term used is "fork". This term is looked up sought in any object names and titles, i.e. in workflow objects, lock objects, etc.
  • The search term can occur anywhere in an object name or title.
  • A case-insensitive search is performed.
  • Additional search criteria include:
    • to limit limiting results to objects located in specific folders.
    • to limit limiting results to objects that have been deployed or released objects only. This excludes will exclude any draft objects from search results.
• Search results are specified to include specific object types such as Workflows, File Order Sources, Job Resources etc.
• Results are displayed in a list that allows to click an entry entries to be clicked on in order to open that entry for editing.

• The Advanced Search is used to limit search results by object dependencies. For example, for example
  • to return Workflows that are triggered by File Order Sources matching the search string,
  • to return Workflows that include Resource Locks matching the search string.
• Any criteria Criteria added to the Advanced Search have to match to make be matched before an object will appear in the search results.
  • Searching for Agent Name returns will only return results only that include jobs executed with the specified Agent.
  • Searching for Count Jobs limits search results to workflows that use the minimum number of jobs specified with the From term. If used with the To term then workflows are returned that include a number of jobs in a range between From and To. If the To term only is used then any workflows are return that do not include a number of jobs exceeding the To term.
  • Searching for Job Name returns workflows that include jobs matching the given name.
    • When using the Exact Match for Job Name checkbox then the search term entered has to fully match a job name including case-sensitive spelling.
    • In addition, searching for job names offers JS7 - Inventory Bulk Operations for Jobs.
• Search terms can occur anywhere in an object name or title.
• The search meta character * can be used to specify that a dependency is required, e.g. from a Resource Lock, whatever name the Resource Lock might use. For example
  • search with the metacharacter * for File Order Sources will return any workflows making use of a File Order Source.
  • search with the metacharacter * for Resource Locks will return any workflows using a Resource Lock.
