The first step in configuring the Thereforeā„¢ Portal requires creating a search template and making it available to Portal users.

 

How do I create a search template and make it available in the Thereforeā„¢ Portal?

 

1.In the Thereforeā„¢ Navigator Home ribbon, click on New Search and select a category or case definition. If required, set advanced options for the search by clicking on Options.

2.Next, save the search template by clicking on the Save icon and selecting Save as global. This will make the search template available to all users in the Thereforeā„¢ system, but permissions can be refined in the Security settings.
