The Browse pane allows you to search for orders and reports that match the criteria you specify. The criteria you select remain in place until you change them, and the system remembers them when you next log in.
NOTE: Depending upon how your administrator has configured your PowerScribe 360 | Reporting system, you might see a smaller subset of the browse filters shown in the Browse illustration below. |
To use the Browse pane to create your own search filter:
1. In the Browse pane, select any criteria you want to include in the filter:
