Searches are Returning Too Many Results
The built-in search engine in Enterprise Organizer Pro defaults to a very broad search pattern (does not apply to Windows Search). For example, by default Enterprise Organizer Pro will:
- Allow two letter deviations per word (to account for bad OCR)
- Match all grammatical variations of each word
- Match all documents that have ANY of the search terms
You can narrow the search results substantially by making a few small adjustments:
- De-select the "Fuzzy" option towards the bottom of the search criteria. This will disallow any letter deviations.
- De-select the "Stemming" option by the "Fuzzy" option. This will disallow grammatical variations on your search terms.
- Place a "+" immediately before each word. This will force the term to be in all search results. For example: +apple +pie. This will only return documents that have BOTH "apple" AND "pie".
- Use quotation marks around exact phrases: "apple pie". This will only return documents that have the exact phrase "apple pie".
- If you know the kind of document you’re searching for (like PDF or DOC), use the "File Type" option to only search that kind of file.
