Search Criteria – Search People

The Search People tool includes 15 key criteria. One or more can be selected to find a person or people. The people search grid includes five columns: Criterion, Selector, Value, User Role, and relationship definition (END, AND, OR, NOT). The Value column is a text box (for user data entry). All other columns are drop-down lists.

Up to three criteria can be combined in a search query. Selecting a User Role narrows the search.

Use the drop-down menu at the end of each line to define the relationship between lines:
