This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes. You can provide tax registration information for the branch if it is a legal entity. By using the window, you can create a new branch or update information about an existing branch. Also, you can set up the base currency to be used by all the branches. For an overview of the branch-related functionality of Visma Net, see: [About multi-branch support](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/about-multi-branch-support/index.md). ## Search line in list window If you are in the list window, the first line in the table is a search line. Each column has a search field which you can click to search for or filter on specific values and narrow down the displayed table rows. You can search and filter in as many columns as you need to, to only display the results you want to view. There are two types of search fields: + White: here you can type a specific search term to display results in this column containing this exact value. If you search on several (partial) words, you can separate them by a space or **%** and get different results: + space: the result contains the words in any order, + **%**: the result contains the words in the specific order, and the **%** functions as a wildcard as well. + Grey: you can click this to open the column filter pop-up window where you can filter the results for this column. ## What to do from this window + [Activate or deactivate the ROT and RUT deduction functionality](//index.md) + [Use the Basic payment processing for AutoPay](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/work-processes/autopay/use-the-basic-payment-processing-for-autopay/index.md) + [Use Advanced payment processing for AutoPay](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/work-processes/autopay/use-advanced-payment-processing-for-autopay/index.md) + [Enter contact information for RF-1301](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/work-processes/b2c/enter-contact-information-for-rf-1301/index.md) ## The window toolbar The window toolbar includes standard and window-specific buttons.
