Click Search at the top of your team app, or press ⌘K on a Mac (Ctrl K on Windows). One box lets you create something, go to a page, or find anything in your account: customers, companies, deals, quotes, invoices, jobs, tasks, tickets, employees, docs, notes, meetings and your emails.

Also called: search bar, global search, search everything, quick search, command bar, shortcut, find a record, go to page, recherche, rechercher, barre de recherche, raccourci

Click Search at the top of the page. On a phone, tap the magnifying glass. You can also press ⌘K (or Ctrl K) from any page.

Click: Search

Step 2: Pick what to do

With nothing typed, you see two lists:

  • Create: New customer, New quote, New invoice, New task, New ticket or Record meeting (records a meeting happening now, in person). You only see the ones you're allowed to make.

  • Go to: every page in your menu, like Dashboard or Settings.

Step 3: Type to find a record

Type at least 2 letters. The search shows the best matches under Customers, Companies, Deals, Jobs, Tasks, Tickets, Employees, Docs, Notes, Meetings and Emails, each with its customer's name when it has one. A note opens its customer's page. A meeting is found by its title or by words said in it. Emails shows only your own emails. To find a quote or an invoice, type its number, like 1042 or #1042. To find a ticket, type words of its title or its number, like SUP-12. Use the arrow keys to move and Enter to open, or click a line. Esc closes the search.

Step 4: Ask Alori when it's not there

At the bottom, under Not what you wanted?, click Ask Alori: followed by what you typed. Alori opens with your words, ready to help.

Click: Ask Alori: …

Good to know

  • You only see what your role lets you see: a technician who sees only their own jobs finds only those, and Employees shows only to people who see the team.

  • You only find the meetings you were in or that were shared with you.

  • Ask Alori searches the same way: ask "find everything about the furnace" and it looks through all of it.

  • A customer line shows their email, phone or address under the name, so you can tell two people apart.

If it doesn't work

  • Nothing shows under Customers. Type a few more letters. One letter isn't enough.

  • A quote or invoice doesn't come up. Type only its number, without other words.

  • You don't see New quote or New invoice. Your role can't create them, or your app doesn't have that tool. Ask the owner.
