Express users may not be acquainted with Onix system, so they may not understand that equipment ID includes serial number, batch number, equip. owner’s ID or even production year. Can we find a way to explain this information in the search panel?

**SUMMARY OF PREVIOUS DISCUSSION:**  
Some suggested solutions:

- Change to the term “Any ID”
- Keep “Equipment ID” so that it’s consistent with Onix Work, but we add one more line to explain: _(Serial no., Batch no., Equip. owner’s ID, Production year)_

We use Id in Onix Work for the best Id. Id can be: Equipment Id, serial or batch. This method is also used on many forms. It should be easy to understand Id🤗
