Help Tab Tips

Searching like a pro

When using the Help Tab search bar to find what you're looking for, make sure to use keywords to quickly see all our articles on your topic.

To most efficiently search through your PatronManager manual, make sure that you're using the correct terms for objects and processes in the system.

For example, if you want to know how to create an event to sell tickets, searching "event," "Ticketable Event," or "Event Instance" will bring up a lot of helpful articles! Using search terms like "concert," "show," and "performance" won't be as helpful.
