The Acquisitions Search interface can be accessed +under Acquisitions -> General Search. + +The search interface has four tabs for line item search, purchase order +search, invoices search, and selection list search. Each tab +offers a search form allowing the user to select one or more +fields to search on. Each search tab stores a separate default search +that the user can update; for example, a user could have their +line item search default to showing all on-order line items from +a particular provider. + +The grid that displays search results in each tab is filterable. + +The line items and PO search interfaces allow the user to navigate to +linked POs, invoices, and so forth, but offers no direct actions. The +invoices search tab includes a 'Print Selected Invoices' action, +while the selection lists search tab offers actions to create, +clone, delete, and merge selection lists. + +The Angular search page contains a link to the legacy Dojo search +interface if needed. The Dojo interface will be removed in a future +release of Evergreen. + +The Angular search interface offers various usability improvements +over the Dojo one, including: + +* only the search operators that are relevant for a given field + are displayed. +* search fields that are associated with controlled vocabularies + will display drop-downs on the search form. +* results are sortable +* the line item and PO state fields have been relabeled to "Status" +* greater than and less than are now available as search operators +* publication date searches are more flexible + +Adjustments to Stock Permissions +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +As part of this feature, the stock permissions for the Acquisitions +and Acquisitions Administrator profiles have been expanded. In +particular, the Acquisitions Administrator profile can now be +more readily used to perform normal acquisitions work in addition +to configuring the acquisitions module. -- 2.11.0
