Product Search Window
From FloristWiki
The Product Search window is used to look for the products you sell in your shop. This window provides you access to all products in FTD Mercury. This window is most frequently used when looking up products (performing Product Searches) from Order Entry and Point of Sale. You can also access it by clicking the Product Search button on the FTD Mercury Main Menu.
Search Parameters
If you search using multiple parameters, products must match all parameters to be included in the results list. You can use the following parameters when searching for products:
| Parameter | Description |
| Product Name | Enter the product code or product name of the product for which you are searching. Product Search first searches against the Product Code, and if no matches are found, it will search against the Product Name. You can also use the % symbol as a wildcard. |
| Occasion | Select the occasion with which the product is associated. If you have products assigned to occasions, you can search for those products by selecting the occasion. |
| Price | Results will be included if the price on a product is the value you enter or above. For example, if you enter $45.00, all products that are $45.00 and above will be included in the search results. |
| Store Name | If you are a multi-store environment, select the store which sells the product. |
| Category | If you want to restrict the category, select it from this list. |
| Quick Picks | Select this option to display products that have been marked as Quick Pick items in their respective product details. |
Results List
The results list displays products that match your search parameters. If you used multiple parameters, products must match all parameters to be included in the results list. When you double-click a product in the results list, it opens in the Product Entry window. Each product has the following information displayed in individual columns:
| Column | Description |
| Product Code | The product code for the product. |
| Price | The product’s price. If there are multiple price points for the product (see Multiple Price Points on page 8–12), you can select the price point you want to use for this product before clicking Select and returning to Order Entry or Point of Sale. When you return to the order, the selected price will be used. |
| Product Name | The product’s name as it appears in the Product Entry window. |
| Image | If there is an image available for this product, an icon appears in this column. Click the icon to display the picture without opening the Product Entry window. |
Button Ribbon
The following buttons are available in the button ribbon at the bottom of the window:
| Button | Description |
| Select | This button only appears if you access Product Search from Order Entry or Point of Sale. From the results list, highlight the product you want to use for the order and click Select (or press ALT+L). The Product Search window will close and the selected product appears in the Products area of the Order Entry or Point of Sale window. |
