Change to default appeal search field - Batch processing
Hi,
I'm trying to find the setting that changes the default search in the Appeal tab within a batch.
Currently I can type the number of the appeal and select, but I want to start typing the appeal description with the suggestions to come up.
Example:
If I search 1687, the Appeal result is 1687
If I select the drop down then type “beq" (1687 is Bequest), nothing comes up, I need to scroll through the list to find it. Then once selected the column will show me the ID (1687), not the description.

Any ideas on where and what setting to change to enable the appeal description to be my default?
I did find the below option and chnaged to what I though was show appeal by description rather than number, but this hasn't worked.
A co-worker of mine has the setting I'm after but no one is able to tell me where this was changed.

Thanks ![]()

@Tasha Mikoz Not 100% sure if it affects batch but I think you need to go to Tools (top of RE window - not in a module) > User Options > Records > Funds. Bottom option on that screen is how to display - fund format. I'm guessing you have Fund ID and want to change that to Description.
Note it will change how it displays system wide for you when you are working with fund.0 -

What JoAnn said, you will find the same option available in User Options for Appeal as well1 -
