When you need to find a group of users that satisfy certain search criteria, use an advanced search. You can specify a set of up to three search criteria. You can base search criteria on information that is stored in the CallPilot database.
After you create a search that successfully finds a specific
group of users, save it for re-use.
An administrator who is comfortable with defining criteria
can create, test and save user searches. Saved searches are available
to any administrative user with access to user search functionality.
You can define up to three search criteria based on user and mailbox properties stored in the CallPilot database. For each search criterion, specify the following:
the data element on which to base the criterion (for example, mailbox number)
the operator that describes the relationship of the data element to the stored values for that data element (for example, EQUAL TO, NOT EQUAL TO, GREATER THAN, LESS THAN)
the value or values to use for comparison (for example, 3346, 3*, or P)
After you define all search criteria, you can specify whether the search must meet all criteria or any one criterion.
The Search Criteria list provides data elements on which you can base search criteria. To facilitate location of the data element you need, the list is organized into the following groups:
Group label |
Description |
General |
Information about the mailbox owner or administrator, such as Last Name. |
DNs |
Specified DNs, such as extensions, and personal revert DN. Also the Auto logon capability. |

After you select a data element from the Search Criteria list, an appropriate list of operators is generated. Select the operator you want to use from the Operator list.
Type the value or values to use for comparison in the Value box. The default value of asterisk (*) returns all stored values described by the relationship between the search data element and the operator.
