Searching for Files

Assyst Real Estate integrates a search function to allow you to search files according to specific criteria.

Note: The search function allows you to search for closed files that are no longer displayed in your list of files. These closed files can be searched if they are closed for less than 6 months.

1.Click the Search for Files link on top of the list of files. This will display the Search for Files dialog box.

2.Complete your search criteria. You can combine more than one criterion.
The different criteria that are available are the following:

	Field	Description
	File No	Enter the number of the file you are looking for.

	Property Address	Text field. Enter the property address of the file you are looking for. Example: To look for " 123, Wood Street", type " 123, Wood Street ". If you just type "123", the system will look for all the files having an address beginning with 123 no matter the name of the street can be.
	Date File Received	Date field. Use the calendar to select the date for the file(s) you are looking for.
