How to Search and Filter Equipment Effectively

Use search and filters in Local Business Pro to quickly find specific equipment in your inventory.

Quick Answer: Use the search box to find equipment by name or description. Combine with Status, Category, and Assigned To filters to narrow down results quickly.

Search Options

  • Search box - Find by name or description
  • Status filter - Available, With Team, At Property, Maintenance
  • Category filter - Tools, Vehicles, Machinery, Safety, Other
  • Assigned To filter - Filter by team member or unassigned

Search and Filter Strategies

  1. Finding specific equipment: Type part of the name in search
  2. Finding available tools: Status = Available + Category = Tools
  3. Auditing a person: Assigned To = [Team Member Name]
  4. Checking maintenance: Status = Maintenance
  5. Finding unassigned items: Assigned To = Unassigned

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why isn't search finding my equipment?
A: Check for typos, try searching part of the name, or verify the equipment has been added to the system.
