For example, search gross orders in the last year if you are looking for a particular Liveboard about sales that a coworker made.

To search your data, select the Search data button in the top navigation bar (next to ‘Search Answers' pictured above).. The Search data page appears. Select a data source to search on (e.g. Sales & Revenue), and type your query into the search bar at the top of the screen. Select Go or click Enter on your keyboard. For example, search sales gross revenue last year store #103 bakerypub type to see last year’s sales in the bakery department for store 103gross revenue by pub type. This type of search requires you to be familiar with your company’s data, to know which worksheets contain data that interests you, and the names of the columns and values within that worksheet.
