Wild card search is not working for Regarding Entity for New Note button

Posted on by 95

I am using updated Dynamics 365 app in my mobile (IOS).

Once you log in, home page appear with Today view by default. There a new button introduced in bottom is New Note. Once you click on the New Note button, it asks for Select Regarding Entity. My issue is that this searching capability is not working with wild character (*) like star but it works with specified character.

Is this bug/ feature or there is any settings that I am not aware.

Inputs are welcome.

    % never works in CRM UI search box. So, this is not working.

    STAR (*) is working as character not as actual *. So, this is not working. It seems me this can be a bug.

    Hi Anish,

    Try using the percentage sign (%) as a wildcard for lookup fields.

    See: www.toplinestrategies.com/.../wildcard-searches-dynamics-crm-ios

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Anish

    Have you put *Text* ?

    I find this works better - if not I would log it as a bug
