Salesforce.com offers advanced search functionalities to help you easily find information within CRM. When searching for information related to a specific object, for example an account, you can either go to the related tab, such as  Image Added , which enables you to interact with that object database. You can then perform your search with the help of ‘Views’ (some are pre-defined or you can customize them).
