Ok - This was something we had in our old 4.1.8 X Cart. Makes looking up customer's orders much easier.

Edit skin1/head_admin.tpl

Around line 55 - just past this code:

 
                    {foreach from=$all_languages item=l}
                  <option value="{$l.code}"{if $current_language eq $l.code} selected="selected"{/if}>{$l.language}</option>
                {/foreach}
              </select>
            </td>
          </tr>
        </table>
      </form>
    {else}

but before:

        
    {/if}
</td>
</tr>

Insert this code:

{*     Search by OrderId or Customer Name *}
      <table>
        <form name="searchform" action="order.php" method="post">
            <tr>
               <td>Order Number:</td>
               <td><input name="orderid" type="text" size="10" maxlength="8"></td>
               </form>
               <form name="searchform" action="orders.php" method="post">
                 <td>Name:</td>
                 <td><input name="posted_data[customer]" type="text" size="10" maxlength="35"></td>
                 <td><input name="posted_data[date_period]" value="" checked="checked" type="radio"></td>
                 <td width="60">All dates</td>
                 <td width="1"><input type="hidden" id="orderid2" name="orderid2" value=""><input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_username]" value="on"><input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_firstname]" value="on"><input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_lastname]" value="on"><input type="hidden" name="posted_data[address_type]" value="Both">&nbsp;</td>
               </form>
            </tr>
       </table>

Now you will be able to look up your customer's Order by their orderid or last name.

If you do not mind it being a little crowded you can also insert this in there to quickly search for a product:

	<form method="post" action="search.php" name="searchform">
		<input type="hidden" name="simple_search" value="Y" />
		<input type="hidden" name="mode" value="search" />
		<input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_title]" value="Y" />
		<input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_shortdescr]" value="Y" />
		<input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_fulldescr]" value="Y" />
		<input type="hidden" name="posted_data[including]" value="any" />
		<input type="hidden" name="posted_data[by_sku]" value="Y" />
		Product:&nbsp;<input type="search" size="30" name="posted_data[substring]" />
		&nbsp;&nbsp;SKU:&nbsp;<input type="search" class="search" size="20" name="posted_data[productcode]" />
		&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search" />
	</form>
