Searching for Items
By default, the Quick Query is available to all users and searches for all items assigned to you. However, you can search for more specific items in the following ways:
Search by Item ID
In the item ID field, type the item ID and press ENTER.
If document versioning is enabled, you can also search for versioned items. To type the ID of a versioned item, use the format Live Item ID-major.minor, for example, 184-1.2.
* 
In the GUI, click the drop-down arrow beside the item ID field to display a selectable list of the 10 most recently typed IDs.
In the Web, click the arrow beside the item ID go to item field to display the most recent ID search, allowing you to refine the search.
When you search for an item, the ItemIDnotfound message displays when the item does not exist and you do not have permission to view the item.
Search by Text
In the text search field, type the text string you want to search for and press ENTER.
