RTC quick search - reserved/system keywords perhaps?
We're running 605 ifix4 . Using the web i/f, we're trying to do a quick search in a CCM project for work items having the word "canned". The system returns a number of records none of which contain the word "canned" . Searching for other values does appear to work as we get various counts of returned work items and they did contain the search string.
One answer
I did a few quick tests, and it appears to me that the quick search mechanism is stripping off any of the standard verb endings (..ing, ...s, ...ed). It also appears that it doesn't do any checks to see whether the base is actually a verb, so you can add 'ing' or 'ed' to any string, and it will strip them off. I couldn't find any way to tell it not to do that preprocessing of the search string. So "canned" is being converted to "can". Does "can" appear in all the search results?
Comments
I did find "can" in the returned records. This is not what one would expect. If users are searching for a string , return results accordingly not some stripped down verb. For example we search for "canned data" , the returned results give 100's of records with "can" . How is that any use ...
Minimally, I would consider it to be a documentation bug, since I didn't find this behavior documented anywhere (the good news about documentation bugs is that they almost always get fixed quickly, so it is always worth submitting them).
