Search Tips in Aras Innovator

In "Jus Ask Innoavtor", we could learn some tips for querying data in simple search mode. But I would use those tips with examples to make it easier to understand.
Suppose there are 5 records in my database.

Exact String Matching

Input words or terms without any special symbol will execute exact string matching.
Input "A0119B/11101", 1 record returned.

Input "A0119B", nothing returned.

Input "11101", nothing returned.

Approximate String Matching

Use "*" or "%" as wildcard character to execute approximate string matching.

Input "A0*", 2 records returned.

Input "*1", 3 records returned.

Input "*ED*", 2 records returned.

Input "A*1*1", 1 record returned.

Regular Expression Matching

Use square brackets with simple regular expression to execute a query is acceptable, all allowed terms (which are tested by myself and refer to this article) are shown below:
  • A-Z → Match alphabetic characters
  • 0-9 → Macth digits
  • !@#$%&()_+-={}:";'<>?,./~ → Match corresponded symbol
  • \| → Match "|" and because "|" is reserved character, escape character "\" is required.
  • \\ → Match "\" and because "\" is reserved character, escape character "\" is required.
Input "[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9]2*" which means first and second position is alphanumeric characters and third position is "2", there are 4 records returned.

Input "*[-/]*" which means the result should contain "-" or "/", there are 5 records returned.

Logical Operator

Use "|" to execute logical operator "OR", that means input multiple conditions is acceptable.

Input "A0*|W9*", 3 records returned.
