Quick Search Fields
Jackrabbit has two Quick Search fields. We also refer to them as Global Search boxes.
- find a family... Search for family name, email, home, or cell phone.
- find a class... Search for active classes. Use the * symbol to do a wildcard search.
See Search for Information in your Database for more details.
Buttons
Buttons are found throughout Jackrabbit. Click a button to perform a specific action or open another screen.
Tabs
Tabs are located on family, student, class, and staff pages in Jackrabbit. Tabs are separate areas of organization. For example, click the Billing Info tab in a Family record to display a screen specific to the family's billing details.
Links
Links are shortcuts to related records. They are displayed in blue text; once a link has been clicked, it will be displayed in purple.
Drop-downs
Drop-down menus are indicated by a down arrow. When you click on the down arrow, a list of choices displays (drops down).
In the Customize Drop-down Lists article, you'll learn how to customize drop-down menus specifically for your organization.
