In the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client, the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Tablet client, and the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Phone client, you can use the Search functionality to limit a data set across columns on lists. Search is enabled by entering criteria in search box. The search is cleared by selecting the cross next to the search box.

Note
In Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client you have a Quick Filter capability that works in a similar manner as Search.
