Defining Item Saved Searches for Order Guides
Create item saved searches to find specific items for your order guides. We provide some default item saved searches you can use as a starting point:
-
Invoiced Items Last Month – Retrieves items from invoice and cash sale transactions created last month.
-
Invoiced Items Last Week – Retrieves items from invoice and cash sale transactions created last week.
These saved searches only work for order guides created from a customer record, not from a template. To access these saved searches, go to Lists > Search > Saved Searches.
You can add only the first 1000 items from an item saved search to an order guide.
To define item saved searches for order guides:

On the Saved Item Search page, do the following:
-
In the Search Title field, enter a unique title for the saved search.

In the ID field, enter a unique identifier for the saved search.
