The cross-object search is only available in the Web client. |
To locate the projects, items, documents, and other objects

Clicking the Select All or Clear All link selects or clears all check boxes at once, and clicking the Hide Options link removes the options from the pane. If the multi-object search pane does not include attributes you need
for your search criteria, click the arrow () beside any of the object
types shown on the pane. This opens the standard list for that object
type, where you can click |
