You can search the Biologics Registry in the following ways:

• Registry-Wide Search - Search across all entities in the registry.
• Grid Search Bar - Search and filter a particular grid of data.

Registry-Wide Search

To search the entire repository, enter your search terms on the home page (as shown below). Alternatively, click Search on the top navigation bar.

Results are displayed as tiles, as shown below.

Click Advanced to filter by Entity Type. The dropdown is populated by the entity types known to the system.

Results will be filtered to only the entity type selected.

Grid Search

A search bar appears above all grid views.

You can enter multiple criteria in the search bar, adding any number of filters, keywords, and sorts.

• filter columns - Enter an expression consisting of a column, a comparator, and a value. The grid will display only those rows where the expression is true (for the selected column). The screenshot below shows the Structure Format column filtered for the value 'Fv'.

• keyword search - Keyword searches behave like substring searches across all of the rows in the table, not just the rows currently displayed in the browser. But the search is limited to only those columns that are currently visible in the browser. Hidden columns are not searched. To control which columns are visible and which are hidden, see Configuring Grids, Detail Views, and Entry Forms.

• sort columns - Sorts control the order in which rows are displayed. Below we have sorted the Name column from low to high values.

You can also control the sort order by clicking the triangle icons in the column headers.
