Search Page Configuration

Of the configurable pages, the page that requires the most configuration is the Search page. In addition to defining the number of fields per row and the number of records to display in the search results list, you can also specify the search criteria that appear and the types of searches allowed from the EDM.

You can define and name several search pages, each with their own configuration. For each page, you specify groups of fields that are displayed in boxed areas. Each boxed area can represent a different type of search, such as a demographic search, address search, EUID search, and so on.

For each search page you define, you must also specify the search types available, such as alphanumeric or phonetic. You can configure searches by specifying a name for the search, the maximum number of records to return, whether the results are weighted, and whether wildcard characters can be used. When you define the search types for the EDM, you must specify a query for each type you define. The queries you specify must already be defined in the Candidate Select file.
