In a nutshell:

From the dashboard, choose the View/Edit Your Data icon. You must have Master or Admin permissions to input, or edit, data records.

When you want to search for your data records, click on the Search menu. If you don't input any filters and just click the Search button you will be presented with the first 1000 records in your database. But you may want to filter your results. You can either search by keywords (one or more, separated by spaces), by date range, or by grave location. But you cannot use all three filter types at once. If searching by keywords, you can check/uncheck different data fields to be included in the search filtering. If searching by date, you can select from the dropdown the type of search to perform, and then input your data range (or leave one of the dates empty to make it open-ended). If searching by grave location, you can input all or a subset of three available grave identifiers (whole in in part). Click on the Search button to get matching data.

When data is returned at the bottom of the page matching your filters, you can click on the View hyperlink to be taken to the data record recap page.

You can also search the graves on your map (if you have one built). With the cemetery record recap page visible, you can click on the option called Click Here To Find On Map. This feature must be enabled on the Configuration/Settings page before it's available. By clicking on this link you are jumped directly to the map display and any matching record(s) are colored purple so you can easily spot them on the map.
