Using Advanced Search

Using Advanced Search

If you need more granularity than keyword searches provide, you can use Advanced Search. Advanced Search enables you to specify values for each field in the inventory record and search the entire inventory listing for that value.

For example, if you need to know which devices have a particular version of BIOS installed to upgrade only those affected devices, you can search for BIOS information. See Searching at the page level with advanced options.

* 
TIP: You can apply filters to devices displayed in search results.

Filter devices

b.
On the left navigation bar, click Organizations, then click Devices.
2.
Select the check box next to one or more devices.
3.

The selected devices are checked against existing filters. If devices were reassigned to organizations, the new organization name appears next to the old organization name in the Organization column.
