Unleash the Power of Filtering and Search One of the standout features of Microsoft Business Central is its robust filtering and search capabilities. By mastering these tools, you can quickly locate and analyse the data you need, saving time and increasing your overall productivity.
- Search looks at visible columns and is not case-sensitive, while filtering looks at all fields and is case-sensitive.
- Use calculated data tokens (e.g., -1Y for a year ago) and combined format expressions (e.g., 5599|8100..8490) for precise filtering.
- Save frequently used filters as views for quick access.
- Leverage powerful filter characters like intervals (e.g., 22..24), either/or (e.g., 1200|1300), and exact character matches (e.g., ‘man’).
Personalise Your Experience Business Central offers a range of personalisation options to tailor the interface to your specific needs and preferences. From adjusting column widths and quick entry settings to enabling focus mode for a distraction-free view of document lines, these customisations can significantly enhance your productivity.
