Search Settings allows you to customize which columns appear in a list and saves your preferences for that list. Quick Search provides access to Recent Searches and Recently Viewed records, making it easy to repeat searches or return to previously opened records.

Important Information
- Search Settings shows or hides columns. The list updates as soon as you select or clear a column.
- A hidden column is not included when you use Search on that list.
- Column choices are saved for you. Other employees keep their own columns.
- Quick Search in the header is separate from Search on a list. When the Quick Search field is empty, Recent Searches and Recently Viewed appear after you have used Quick Search.
- A Recent Search runs that search again. A Recently Viewed record opens that record.
- Showing or hiding a column does not change the Order, Estimate, or Customer record.
