Windows That Search Options Appear On

Search options appear on several Horizon windows. You can create or edit search options for most of these windows. You are probably most familiar with the main search window in staff searching:

Here are some other examples of search windows:

Borrower Search window in staff searching. Lets you search for a borrower to place a hold request for or to view information about.
Borrower Search window in Circulation. Lets you search for a borrower record to update.
PO and PR Search windows in Acquisitions. Lets you search for purchase orders and purchase requests.
Serials Search windows in Serials Control and Serials Checkin. Lets you search for copy records.
Instructor and Course Search windows in Reserve Bookroom. Lets you search for course and instructor records.

For each window that displays search options, Horizon assigns a code. For search windows, this code corresponds exactly to the name of the PAC flavor that displays the window. Therefore, you might have several versions of a search window, one for each flavor. Codes for windows other than staff searching windows were assigned at the time of installation and you should not change them.

This table lists the windows you can create search options for, the code assigned to each window, and the purpose of each window:
