Advanced

Perceptive Enterprise Search supports Advanced Searches that allows users to perform advanced searching without the need to know Perceptive Enterprise Search syntax. The Advance search page allows you to refine searches to "include all the words", "include the exact phrase", "include at least one of the words" and "exclude the words".

IW_FIELD_ADVANCE_ANDInstructs Perceptive Enterprise Search that all the words contained within this field must exist in the found documents.
IW_FIELD_ADVANCE_ORInstructs Perceptive Enterprise Search that at least one of the words contained within this field must exist in the found documents.
IW_FIELD_ADVANCE_NOTInstructs Perceptive Enterprise Search that the found documents must not contain any of these words.
IW_FIELD_ADVANCE_PHRASEInstructs Perceptive Enterprise Search that the documents must contain the text exactly as shown.
