Create Hyperfind Queries

About Hyperfind Queries

Hyperfind is a search engine that filters and selects groups of employees through queries that specify conditions or locations (criteria). Queries enable you to access a specific group of employees who are active as of a specific date.

The results of query searches depend on the employees to whom you have access. Your access rights determine whether you can create and modify queries and the conditions you can use.

Types of Hyperfind queries:

  • Ad hoc — A temporary Hyperfind that only you can use. When you log off, the Hyperfind is deleted.
  • Personal — The Hyperfind is saved and available for reuse, and only you can access it.
  • Public — The Hyperfind is available for anyone’s use, but you cannot create or edit a public query.
