Search and Command Palette
The command palette is Peasy's universal search bar. Press Cmd+K (or Ctrl+K on Windows) to open it from anywhere in the app. It's the fastest way to find items, navigate pages, and take quick actions.

- Press Cmd+K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows)
- Or click the search bar at the top of the home page
What You Can Search For
The command palette searches across everything in Peasy:
- Items and products — Find by name, SKU, or description
- Vendors and suppliers — Search by name
- Customers — Search by name or email
- Purchase orders — Type a PO number (like "PO-123") to jump to it
- Sales orders — Type an SO number (like "SO-456") to find it
- Templates — Find production templates
- Categories, locations, and more
Quick Actions
Beyond search, the command palette lets you take action instantly:
- Navigate to any page — Type "Purchase Orders" or "Inventory" to jump there
- Create records — Quickly create a customer, vendor, item, order, or work order
- Launch feature guides — Access guided tours directly from search
- Change settings — Switch themes, contact support, or log out
Smart Search
The search is smart about what you type:
- PO numbers — Typing "PO-" automatically searches purchase orders
- SO numbers — Typing "SO-" searches sales orders
- Fuzzy matching — Even if you don't spell something perfectly, Peasy will find close matches
- Recent items — When you first open the palette (before typing), it shows your recently visited items
Good to Know
- The command palette works from any page — you never need to navigate away to search.
- Search results show the type of each result (item, vendor, customer, etc.) so you can tell them apart.
- Press Escape to close the palette without taking action.
- The palette is designed for keyboard-first use — arrow keys to navigate, Enter to select.
