Search...

The search bar is found in the middle of the top menu bar and can be used from any page of RMTrack to search the Issues in your database.

Type the

Issue Number

into the search box to be taken directly to the Issue Details page for that issue.

Or type a

word or phrase

into the box to search for matches in your database.

NOTE: Users may see the following message appear when they click in the search box:

NOTE: RMTrack installs with Full Text Indexing disabled. We recommend Enabling Full Text Indexing to improve the efficiency and usability of the RMTrack Search page.

WARNING: Searching for phrase using the Search box will overwrite any unsaved filter you are currently using. You may want to save your current filter before using the search box. When searching for a phrase using the search box the current filter will be reset to "First 25 Issues in Any project, and Search matches search phrase".

Full-Text Searches

are more like internet searches. The search will return a ranked list of results where the higher the rank the more likely a match it is.

Multiple words (AND) search:

Each word in the search phrase must be present in any single field of the issue. For example, searching for the phrase: problem logon will return all issues that have at least one field that contains both the word problem and the word logon.

NOTE: The RMTrack search uses an implied "and" in multiple word searches. The search phrase ... logon problem ... translates to: logon AND problem.

Exact phrase search:

You can use double quotes to search for an exact match of words. For example a search phrase of: “problem with logon” will only return issues that contain the exact phrase "problem with logon" in some field on the issue.

Either (OR) search:

You can use OR (capital letters) to search for either of two (or more) words. For example a search phrase of problem OR logon will return all issues that contain the word problem or that contain the word logon.

Exclude word searches:

You can use the minus sign to exclude results. For example a search phrase of problem –logon will return all issues that have at least one field that contains the word problem and does not contain the word logon.

Partial word (*) match:

The asterisk * can be used as a wildcard character to match on any sequence of characters at the end of a word. For example a search phrase of: log* will return all issues that contain the words logon, login, logout etc.
