Description
Categories
Custom fields
AND Logic – Match All Criteria
To find items that match all search terms:
Type your search terms separated by spaces.
Press Enter.
Examples:
table round→ Finds items with both “table” AND “round”chair gold 72→ Finds items that match all three terms
OR Logic – Match Any Criteria
To find items that match any of your search terms:
Type
OR(in all caps) between terms.Press Enter.
Examples:
chair OR stool→ Finds items with either “chair” OR “stool”linen OR napkin OR tablecloth→ Finds any of those items
This is helpful when browsing similar inventory types.
Combine AND/OR:
You can mix both types of logic in one search
Examples:
(chair OR stool) wood
→ Finds items with (“chair” OR “stool”) AND “wood”table (round OR rectangle) 60
→ Finds tables that are round or rectangle AND mention “60”
This gives you powerful control when filtering large inventories.
Exact match
This mode:
Searches item names only
Returns exact matches
Excludes similar variations
Example:
Searching Round Table will return only items named exactly “Round Table.”
It will not return:
“Rectangle Table”
“Round Coffee Table”
Exact Match is faster when you want one specific item without browsing similar results.
When to Use Each Mode
Use Query Search When You:
Need to search categories, descriptions, or custom fields
Want items that match multiple criteria (e.g.,
gold chair chiavari)Are browsing or exploring similar items

Use Exact Match When You:
Know the exact item name
Want to quickly open one specific item

Using the right search mode can save you time and make managing large inventories much easier.
