# Find a student in the list

> The search box, the status filter, and what each column of the list shows.

## What you will get

A student found in seconds, however long the list gets. The screen shows 15 per
page in alphabetical order, and there are two ways to dig: the **Search** box
and the **Status** filter.

*The two work together: what you type into Search is looked for inside whatever Status let through.*

## The Search box

It looks in three places at once, even though the hint inside the box mentions
only two:

- **Full name** — including fragments. "duar" finds "Marina Duarte Lopes".
- **ID / Document** — with or without dots, however it was stored.
- **Email** — including fragments, which helps when you only remember the
  domain.

After typing, click **Filter**. **Clear** brings the whole list back.

## The Status filter

| Option | Who shows up |
|---|---|
| **All statuses** | Everyone on the list |
| **Active** | The normal state of someone studying |
| **Inactive** | Anyone you marked as inactive |
| **Deleted** | Anyone taken off the list — and only here do they appear |

**Deleted** is the only way to see who left. Under the other three options those
records vanish completely.

## The columns

**Full name**, **ID / Document**, **Email**, **Status** and **Actions**. When a
student has no document or no email, the column is blank or shows a dash — that
is not an error.

**Actions** holds **View**, **Edit** and **Delete**. On a deleted student's row,
all three are replaced by **Restore**.

## How you know it worked

> [certo]
> The footer of the list counts what your filter found — "Showing 1 to 15 of 22
> results". That is how you check the search caught what it should.

## If something goes wrong

> [erro]
> **The search cannot find a student you know exists.** Check the **Status**
> filter: if it is on **Active** and the student is inactive, they will not show.
> Try **All statuses**.
>
> **The student vanished from every filter.** They were probably deleted. Pick
> **Deleted** in the status filter.
>
> **Searching by ID finds nothing.** Try digits only, then with punctuation. What
> counts is the format the document was stored in.
>
> **You do not see the Delete or Restore buttons.** Those two actions belong to
> whoever administers the account. If you are on the team, they do not appear.
