Search Field Descriptions
Global Search
You can enter either accession number or clinic number or any text as search text.
If the search text you entered starts with a letter and two numbers followed by a dash (for ex., N20-) then it prefills the text into the Accession Number field and returns the results.
If the search text starts with a letter followed by numbers or is purely all numbers (ex., g7646358 or 7465856) then the system considers it as clinic number and returns the results.
If the search text does not meet the above two points, then the system considers it as a report filter text.
