SMK

Advanced Search – SMK Requirements

We need to be able to compose advanced search strings using Boolean operators (including brackets) or a similar approach, not just in keyword searches, but also in field based searches. 

In principle all fields (whether CS Core or extensions) should be searchable across record types. And each field should be allowed to appear more than once in an extended search string.

Concept search (i.e. a search on a larger concept returns that concept as well as things that fall under that larger concept) is a must have to SMK.
