Global Search

Accessible from the main menu, the global search functionality allows users to quickly find specific items or information within the InvenTree system. The search icon is located at the top of the interface and provides a convenient way to search across all sections of the system.

Clicking on the "search" icon (in the menu bar) opens the search menu, which allows users to enter search queries and view results from across the system.

To navigate to the detail page for a particular search result, simply click on the desired result from the search results list. This will take you directly to the relevant page within the InvenTree system, allowing you to view and interact with the specific item or information you were searching for.
