• Global – searches number, name, EAN, brand, storage bin and more.
• Contains, Starts with, Exact – search only item number and name.

#Filtering

• Labels – shows only items with the selected labels.
• Quick filter – several groups that can be combined freely:

  • Item condition (e.g. new, used),
  • Procurement type: purchasing, in-house manufacturing, contract manufacturing,
