Perform a Basic Search

Take the following steps to perform a basic search:

  1. Click the Search tab.
  2. Type your text string into the Search Entry box. The plug-in dynamically presents suggestions as you type, among them a suggestion that matches the text you've typed in the Search Entry box. The plug-in also presents spelling suggestions based on the most common spellings available to it.
    • Remember: Search suggestions are not patient specific: The plug-in displays them when it matches entries in its Lucene index whether or not coresponding data exists in your currently selected patient's record. Hence, selecting a suggestion doesn't guarantee results.
  3. Click a suggestion or press the Enter key.
    • If you click a suggestion that falls within a category other than Suggestions, the plug-in presents only results that fall within the category. That is, it uses its dynamic domain faceting capability to filter results.
    • If you click a suggestion that falls within the Suggestion category, the plug-in returns all results.
