Paging in ExpressNet
 

Results & Sorting (Figure 1.1) - The items on "Page 1" will be the first 100 items - based on the sort criteria that was chosen for the Request/Reports page.  In All Reports Mode the default sort is in Submission Name order.  The title of the column that is currently the main sort will be bolded, with an arrow pointing up or down to indicated the direction of the sort - i.e. up arrow means (for example) the date sort goes from most current to oldest while the down arrow in the date column indicates that the oldest items are shown first (See Figure 1.1).  Similarly, the Submission Name column can be sorted from 0-9/A-Z or Z-A/9-0, etc.  To change which column controls the sort, click on the column heading - i.e. Status, Submission Name, Date.  To change the direction of the sort, click the column heading a second time and it will reverse order.

Navigation (Figure 1.2) - To the top right of the Request and Report table will be the current page number plus the next 4 page numbers, so that the user may jump to another part of the list by clicking on another page number.  This will work well for the user who has only 3 or 4 pages of reports and requests displayed.  For the user who has several pages of reports and needs to locate a specific item(s), or who does not wish to visually search for the item, there are two options.  Click [Search] on the main menu bar, or click [Find] on the upper right portion of the Request/Report screen. 

Searching (Figure 1.2) - Use of [Find] or [Search]  allows the user to input criteria for a database search.  Searchable fields include the subject's Name, DL# / SSN, Comment, etc.  In order for a piece of information (such as a DL#) to be located in the search, it must have been entered as part of the request.  For example, if the user submitted a Credit Score request and did not use the subject's SSN as a search input, a search cannot be conducted on that particular SSN.  The user would have to search instead on an item that was entered - such as the last name.

Additional Notes

• "Select All" and "Clear All" only select and deselect the current results being displayed on the screen.
  Example: If you have 350 reports total, and you click "Select All" on page 1 of your results list, it will only select (by placing a check in the box) the reports displayed on Page 1 (Total of 100)
   

• Selecting "Print All Unprinted" will ignore paging and pull up all of the reports that currently have a status of "Unprinted"
  Note: You are limited to a maximum of 150 reports to display/print at a time.
