One of the most powerful tools in your PolicyCo toolkit is the ability to search across your entire library. But this isn't just about finding a lost file—using search effectively helps your team scrub out duplicate language, track down specific evidence, and even polish up your procedure wording.
Getting Started
Ready to dive in? Just click the search icon in the header. A search window will slide out from the left side of your screen.
By default, the tool searches through everything (all filters are on). But you can easily narrow your focus. In the example on your screen, we searched for "wireless systems admin" and toggled on the Procedures filter to pinpoint exactly what we needed.
How Results Work
We do the heavy lifting to sort your results by relevance. Here is how it works:
Frequency & Phrasing: If your search term appears frequently or matches a specific phrase, those results jump to the top.
Best Match First: As you can see in the example, the top result is the "winner" because it contains all three words from the search query. The results below it might only have one or two matches—useful for context, but not your primary target.
Pro Tip: Spotting Duplicates
Here is a great "power user" move: try searching with just the Evidence filter turned on.
This is the fastest way to check if your organization is doubling up on work. If you see multiple evidence items with similar titles or descriptions, you can flag them and work with your team to consolidate them into a single, efficient task.
