Hello Subin,

Searching is made based on a column field, and cannot be done out of the box through multiple fields with one search box. Also, the search is specific to every data type, and one search cannot be made for different types unless all of the are treated as strings.

Please check the supported filtering options for the Grid:

http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/filter-row

http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/filter-menu-customization

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/grid#configuration-filterable

Let me know if additional information is needed on this matter.

Hello Subin,

As mentioned in the first reply, searching through multiple columns from the toolbar is not supported as the columns may be in different formats and there is no unified and supported searching that will accomplish this.

I only listed the supported filter options to show the alternatives.

Also, I can recommend our Progress Professional Services team which can provide solutions for custom implementations:

Hello Subin,

Additionally, I can recommend these two threads demonstrating similar approaches to search through the items. Please have in mind that these are community made and not officially supported:
