After you locate an account, navigate to other features to which you are entitled. The selected account becomes the account used for all account-related windows until you select another account.
The links that display on Account Search are based on your entitlements and how you choose to customize the window:
Note: When searching for an account using either an account number or SSN/TIN, hyphens are not required.
If you already know the account number, select 1 of the Account # search options and enter the account number. The search option that displays by default when you open Account Search is referred to as the primary search criteria. You can select a different primary search criteria as the default.
Use Worklists or Advanced Search to search across your accounts using advanced criteria.
If you already know the account number, select an account number search option and enter the number.
From the sidebar, select the Account Search icon.
Select a search option and enter the 9-digit account number:
Select Search or press Enter.
If an exact match is found, the account-related window you most recently viewed opens. Otherwise, Account Positions opens.
Search for your authorized accounts using basic search criteria:
When you have chosen to display the All link and you are authorized to 2,000 accounts or fewer, a type-ahead feature is available. As you enter a search value, the list dynamically filters to include only those names or numbers that "contain" or "start" with the characters that you enter.
When you are authorized to more than 2,000 accounts, your list of accounts does not automatically display until your search retrieves 2,000 or fewer results.
Refine your search by including secondary search criteria: RR1, RR2, or Agency. When your search includes secondary criteria, results must match all values that you enter. As an alternative, you can choose not to show secondary criteria.
Use this procedure to search when:
From the sidebar, select the Account Search icon.
Select a search option:
Enter a value.
To enter secondary search criteria, if enabled, select an option and enter a value:
Select Search or press Enter.
To return to the list of all your accounts, select All.

To enter secondary search criteria, if enabled, select an option and enter the full value (partial values are not allowed):
Select Search or press Enter.
In the Account # column, select a link. The account-related window you most recently viewed opens. Otherwise, Account Positions opens. After you select an account, the account displays to your list of recent accounts.
To navigate to a specific account-related window, in the Menu column, select an Arrow and choose an option. The availability of options in the menu depends on your user entitlements.
After you select an account, it displays to a list of your recent accounts. This list displays up to 100 accounts that you viewed during your current session. The most recent accounts sort to the top of the list.
To return to recent accounts, select Recent.
If entitled, easily switch from Grid View to List View when you need a more compact view of the accounts. In List View, there are no column headers; fields display in the following arrangement:
| Account # (Reg)
Primary Account Holder |
FBSI Short Name or SSN/TIN
Total Account Value |
Menu |
To change how the window displays, do 1 of the following:
The All list and the Results list sort based on your default search option, whether that criterion is used for the search or not. For example, if the search option includes primary account holder or FBSI short name, the list sorts on the Primary Account Holder or FBSI Short Name column. If you choose Primary Account Holder SSN/TIN as the search option, the SSN/TIN column displays.
To sort accounts, do 1 of the following:
If entitled, select a default search option to display upon opening Account Search, hide the All tab, enable secondary search criteria, and hide closed accounts.
Upon opening Account Search, it is recommended to display all your accounts for users with 2,000 accounts or fewer. If you have a larger number of accounts, hide the All tab to improve the performance of the Account Search.
Eliminate closed accounts from your search results. This simply hides closed accounts returned as part of an account search; this does not delete closed accounts. Easily switch back to show closed accounts when ready. Closed accounts are identified as:
