What filter options are available?

    In the mobile application, you can quickly and easily search through the inventory by using various filters and a free-text search. This allows you to target specific items for management. Here are the different search options described in detail:

    • Filter Options: To efficiently search through the inventory, several filter criteria are available to help you display only the relevant items:

      • Inventory Type: Filter by the type of inventory, such as standard inventory or quantity-based inventory. This allows you to view a specific type of item in isolation.

      • Recipient: Search for items assigned to a specific person or user. This is useful for tracking the current status of an item or determining who has it.

      • Manufacturer and Model: Filter the inventory by a specific manufacturer or model to find items from a particular brand or type. This can be helpful when searching for specific technical specifications.

      • Storage Location: Display items based on their storage location or warehouse. This makes it easier to quickly identify the physical location of an item, especially in larger storage environments.

      • Category: Filter the inventory by categories such as office supplies, IT equipment, or tools to get a better overview of specific groups of items.

    • Free-Text Search: In addition to the filters, a free-text search option is available. Here you can enter any terms or parts of names to search for specific items or information. The free-text search is ideal if you are not sure what criterion to use or if you have specific keywords.

      • Examples of Free-Text Search:
        • Search for a specific item by its name, e.g., "Laptop."
        • Enter part of the model number for precise results, e.g., "ProBook 450."
        • Find all items from a particular manufacturer by entering its name, e.g., "HP" or "Dell."

    • Combining Filters and Free-Text Search: You can combine filter options with the free-text search for even more precise results. For example, you can search for "Laptop" in the category "IT Equipment" or combine a specific manufacturer with a location.
