Searching for task groups
After you create a task group, you can search for task groups in the Workspace Management tool. You can search for task groups by using quick search or advanced search.
Note: Search terms can contain a wildcard character (asterisk)
to increase the scope of the search results. The wildcard indicates
that all task groups that contain the partial search term should be
returned in search results. Wildcard searching can help more advanced
search users quickly find and display large amounts of search results.
For example, submitting a search for task group* returns search results for all task groups that start with the term task group, such as task group A and task group B.
Before you begin
- Workspace manager
- Task group approver

Be aware of the following search limitations:
- Advanced searches with only a status that is specified do not return any search results. You must use a wildcard search in the name or code field to search for all task groups with a specific status.

- Search results are read-only for task group managers or approvers.
