In ifs cloud search on pages, when typing in a part number on Eng Part or Inv Part it will let users type 5 numbers and then exits the box.

 

Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?  If so, what is the fix??

Wondering if it is some kind of setting on the pages or in the search box?  I can’t find anything specific though CoPilot and Claude have some good info on the subject. :-/

Hi ​@chajash,

This behavior is not expected in IFS Cloud. There is no standard setting limiting input length in search fields, and the search component is designed to allow continuous typing. The issue is most likely caused by a client-side problem (e.g., browser extension, autofill interference, or UI focus handling).

As an immediate check, try reproducing the issue in a different browser or in an incognito session. If the issue persists across environments, it is likely a UI defect specific to the page and should be logged with supporting evidence for further investigation.
