- Refresh - the data will refresh periodically, but you can also force a data refresh
- Options - lets you customize which columns display. You can also drag and drop columns to re-order them. You can also set the timing for how often you want the data to refresh.
- Print - if you find that you would like to print something from EMS, the printer settings will need to be configured by LTS; but in the meantime you can print to PDF, or export to CSV.
- Export to CSV - this can be helpful if you'd like a report to work with in Excel
- Filter - this allows you to search or limit your results - for example, you can search for a specific barcode, or you can display all items that do not have a store date.
- You can save any custom filters and name them for easy retrieval
- % is the wild card symbol
- Grouping is available for more complex nested queries
- The operators "in list" or "not in list" can be used to query a list of multiple identifiers at once
- Sort - as with filtering, you can sort by any column and save custom sort settings
- View - the view setting lets you customize filter AND sort settings in one place
- Records per page (at the bottom of the screen) - customize how many records display per screen, or show all (note: if you print or export CSV it will only export the records currently being displayed)
- Note: any changes to settings, and/or custom filters/sort/views, are specific to your EMS login
