Wild Card Searches not giving any result

Posted on by DKD 190

Hi, I have created a view within the solution. When I access the view and try to search for a part of the name from the search bar, it does not give any data. Can anyone please help me how to get this right. The primary key is account number and the view is sorted by name first and then account number. Thanks.

    You need to make sure the field is included in the search fields, see below

    www.microsoft.com/.../edit-the-quick-find-view.aspx

    You may need to put the wild card at the front of the search.

    CRM searches search the beginning of the fields, so if you are typing in a search which doesn't match the start it will not match it

    e.g.

    Hosk

    if I searched

    osk

    I wouldn't find it but if I typed

    H

    it would return it

    You will need to use wildcards at the start and end of the search term - *search*

    Also make sure that the fields are configured as find fields in the entities Quick Search view.

    Hope this helps,

    Scott
