The Subject Search page allows searches for individual subjects, or for subjects based on their status, type and events associated with that subject. By default the Subject Search page appears on the menu here:
However, the administrator may have configured Exprodo SDM so that the menu is different.
Once the page is opened, there are a number of choices on how to operate the search.
The options can be used individually (any) or combined (Status, Type, Events) to create the search criteria. Once the criteria are chosen use the Columns button to determine which columns of the subject information to display and then press Go to do the search.
