### What is Quick Search

Quick Search is a universal search tool that lets you find information across your Joy loyalty program without navigating through multiple pages. Located in two key areas of your dashboard, it helps you quickly access customer data, coupon details, order information, and program settings whenever you need them.

### Why you should use Quick Search

Quick Search saves time by eliminating the need to navigate through multiple menu sections. Whether you're helping a customer with their points balance, tracking down a specific coupon code, or locating a particular loyalty program, you can find what you need in seconds rather than minutes.

### How to use Quick Search

### FAQs

**Q: Can I search for customers by name instead of email?**\
A: Currently, Quick Search works with email addresses, order IDs, and coupon codes. Customer names aren't searchable through this feature.

**Q: Why don't I see results for a program I know exists?**\
A: Make sure you're using the exact program title or ID. Try searching with just part of the program name if the full title doesn't work.

**Q: Can I search for expired or deleted programs?**\
A: Quick Search only shows active programs. To view expired or deleted programs, use the filter options in your main programs section.

**Q: What if I can't remember the exact coupon code?**\
A: Try searching with just the prefix you set up (like "JOY-" or "SUMMER"). This might help you find similar codes.

**Q: Does Quick Search work on mobile?**\
A: Yes, Quick Search works on all devices. The search bar adapts to your screen size for easy mobile use.
