Hi Team,

 

Several tests were done on the AURENA Time Registration view to query the employees list.

Kindly remark the following point when querying data:

To look for an employee based on the Internal Display Name, currently using the character % as wildcard.

During tests, it was remarked that in the advanced query generated by IFS, the '%' is replaced by '~' and it seems that the '~' is more efficient.

What is the IFS recommendation on filtering in AURENA: Shall we use % or  ~ as the wildcard

Thank you and Best regards,
Kalhari.

Hi Kalhari,

 

In Aurena, if the user wants to search employees whose name contains part of the search criteria [eg: contains “Alain”] instead of searching with wildcards [as Alain%], the user can use the ‘tilde’ sign [~] to search [eg: ~Alain].

Since it will then fetch names where the searched term is present in any part [beginning, middle and end], user will get more results.

 

These various search options in Aurena can be identified by clicking the “?” mark in the search fields. [Refer image, copied from Employee File window]

 

Best regards,
