Search is located at the top of each object setup tab. The action allows you to search on items specific to each setup type. For example, in Setup Measures, you can search for Formula measures, measures with a specific dashboard, and measures with a specific category.
Create categories and include in each category objects of similar type. For example, a category called “Finance” could be applied to all financial measures. You can search by any of the categories you have created.
The Search feature appears in Open and New dialog boxes for books, links, and views. Also, the Search feature appears in various Run and Generate, and Edit dialog boxes.
When you use the Search feature, the left list of items on the setup dialog box changes to display only the results of your search. Search supports using as many as three search criteria.
