Need Wildcard *xx* Feature in Searches
It is difficult, without downloading large quantities of data to excel, to find a particular invoice number in PO inquiry (as an example) when the search only allows for exact match. If looking for invoice 12-345, but someone keyed 1-2345 it will NOT be returned. If we could search by 345 or contains "345" maybe we could find what we are looking for and not duplicate payments.

This is our number 1 issue with the system. We have to go back to excel files to look up UB customers if we aren't searching by the perfect legal name or exact street address. We would like a true wildcard * search where it will find anything that contains the text used.

This needs to be available in all search fields where there is a string...to be able to search for one department in GL inquiry for example and not have to put the fund in, since many departments have budgets in numerous funds.

This would be an awesome feature in the UB module as well for all searchable fields...

Adding this search feature in TAX would be A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!! There is nothing more irritating during the tax quarter than having to find an account with multiple owners and the caller only knows their vacant lot is on Main St. The wildcard would make things soooooo much easier and quicker. It would also help in finding properties with multiple house numbers.
