The search mode can be specified independently for each record search operation contained in a navigation query, as well as for the value search query.
Search mode | Description |
---|---|
All | Match all user search terms (that is, perform a conjunctive search). This is the default mode. |
Partial | Match some user search terms. |
Any | Match at least one user search term. |
AllAny | Match all user search terms if possible, otherwise match at least one. The AllAny search mode is not recommended in cases where queries can exceed two words. For example, a query on womens small brown shoes would return results on each of these four words and thus be essentially useless. In general, AllPartial is a better strategy. |
AllPartial | Match all user search terms if possible, otherwise match some. Because you can configure this mode to match at least two or three words in a multi-word query, AllPartial is generally a better choice than AllAny. |
PartialMax | Match a maximal subset of user search terms. |
Boolean | Match using a Boolean query. |
