Introduction to Searches
Search Types
To perform searches on HOPEX repository objects, you can use the following tools:
• the quick search tool, which gives access to:
• the full-text search (available if the repository is indexed),
• the search by object type.
See Quick Search.The quick search tool restricts the search to business objects specific to your Solution. To perform a search on all business object types, use the advanced search tool.
• the advanced search tool, by using the wizard or by entering a query using a repository query language.
The advanced search tool enables searches on all the business objects.
See Advanced Search.According to your expertise, you may need to extend the search:

In the advanced search tool, you can extend the search to abstract objects.
Abstract objects bear the prefix [A] and are listed subsequent to the concrete objects in the IntelliSense tool.Abstract objects are prefixed with the / character and are first listed in the IntelliSense tool.
