There are three ways to find a submission: the list of submissions by meeting, the quick search in the header, and the full-text advanced search. Your own work is also always on My Tasks.
Submissions on schedule#
Open My Tasks → Submissions in the left menu. Use Filter by to choose what to list:
- List by schedule: the submissions scheduled for the meeting you pick in the meeting-date list;
- List archived: submissions marked as archived;
- List deleted: submissions that were deleted.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Submission Id | Opens the submission in a new tab. |
| Presubmission, Operations, Clerk | Status icons of the Presubmission (Law), Validation (BOE Operations) and Confirmation (BOE Clerk) reviews. Columns without any status are hidden. |
| Submission subject, Department | What the item is and who submits it. |
| Action start, Action end | The period of the action. |
| Transaction amount | The total of the funding sources. |
| Non routine? | Whether the Clerk marked the item as non-routine. |
Like every grid in CLIF, the list can be filtered, sorted and exported to Excel; see Working with grids.
Quick search#
Type in the search box in the header and press Enter or Search. Quick search looks at the Submission Id and the subject, and the results open on the Search submissions page with the Submission Id, subject and created date.
| You type | Finds |
|---|---|
parking garage | Submissions whose Id or subject contain both words. |
parking or garage | Submissions whose subject contains either word. |
"parking garage" | Submissions whose subject contains the exact phrase. |
SB-25-1234 | That submission. |
| (nothing) | All submissions. |
Advanced search#
Click Advanced search next to the header search box to search the full text of submissions. Choose where to look:
| Option | Searches |
|---|---|
| All | Everything below. |
| Subject | Submission Id, subject, requested action and vote notes. |
| People | Names of the creator and of everyone who worked on the approvals. |
| Department | Department code and name. |
| Story | The background info text. |
| Attachment | File names and the text inside attached PDFs. |
Up to 100 results are shown, with the search term highlighted in the subject. Expand a result to see which fields matched,
with a snippet of each (for example Attachment content or Background info). Wildcards work: garag*.
