Expand search range of "search CRM data" field

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hey,

I want to expand the search range of the big search button in Microsoft CRM 2016 that is labelled "Search CRM data", on the top of the web pages.

Right now it only searches for Accounts, Contacts etc. those basic tables. I want it to also search in custom entities that I made.

Any idea on how to achieve this please? I have been searching in the customize the system and I don't want to use the "advanced find" next to it.

    Thanks a lot for the reply, I very much appreciate it! I just came by this link myself while searching for other issues and came back here to post it for others. Turns out I just wasn't using the proper search options in Google.
