User Search

You can search for all documents, in the Search Pane, and folders that have been created, checked out, owned, or last modified by a particular user. You can search for both Laserfiche users and domain account users (such as Windows users).

  1. In the Search Pane, click Customize Search and select User.
  2. In the search option, type the name of a user or click Browse  to select a user. If you want to search for a domain account, type the domain followed by a backslash and then the user name.
  3. Example: DOMAIN\JSMITH

    Note: While you may be able to browse to and select a domain group, searching by group will not return any results. You can only search for entries relating to a particular user, not to all members of a group.

  4. Select the search type (Created By, Owned By, Checked Out By and/or Last Modified By) for the search you want to perform.
  5. Click Search.

Tip: To search for multiple users or to add flexibility to searches, use advanced user search syntax.
