Advanced Features of Global Search (Premium)

Here’s how you can utilize the SuiteCRM Global Search plugin to its best advantage and save a lot of time.

Recent Search Results

When a user first clicks on the input search bar, the user will be able to see the most recent search results in the drop-down box. Each item will show you the name of the record and the module to which the record belongs to.

Live Search Results

As the user types in the search input, top results will instantly appear in the dialog drop-down box. The instant search results will be based on the three characters that you typed in the bar. This provides relevant information to the user without even entering the complete keyword.

This will help you finding the records even if you don’t know the exact what or whom you are looking for. Another good thing is, there is a disambiguation field that will help the user in differentiating between similar names or duplicate records.

Pre-scoping or Module based search

It’s a good thing when a user already knows what they are looking for, it means that they will get their results faster. With the help of the Global Search plugin, the user can narrow down the scope of their search to specific modules like leads, contacts, accounts, etc.

Choose your own search preferences

In the configuration, the user can choose how they want to get the search results. There are three options namely Exact Match, Begins with, and includes. All three scenarios are self-explanatory and function as per their name.

For example, if you chose the exact match then you will only see the results including the exact keyword that you entered in the search box. Based on your preference, you can select any of the settings.
