Many database fields allow free input and flexible formats. Internal standards for creating records are invaluable to facilitate later searches.
- Enter one or more Search terms. The database fields that are searched vary depending on the function.
Note: You can find more detailed information in the tooltip that is displayed on mousehover.
- More specific custom input fields are labelled with the name of the field to which they refer.
Example: "Subject" or "External number"
- Search terms do not have to be complete, the beginnings of words will be enough. The search results, however, will be more accurate for complete terms.
E.g.: "War" finds Warwick, Warner, Warburg etc.
- Search for a fragment that occurs in the middle of the word by inserting an asterisk "*" as a wildcard.
Example: "*roy" finds Conroy and Milroy
- Search words do not have to be spelt completely correctly. The phonetic search also finds similar-sounding words. (German only)
Example: The input "Meier" will find Meier, Mair and Meyer
