Searching Without Leading Wildcard Operators

OBJECTIVE: Leading wildcard operators are currently disabled in Review. This prevents any search that starts with a wildcard, such as “*enron” This document lays out alternative workflows to achieve the same results.

Keyword Searching in Processing

Processing’s keyword search functionality will allow the use of wildcard searches. Processing can be used to run keyword searches and the results can then be filtered within Review.

Note

This workflow will only work for records that have been indexed in Processing.

1. Index in Processing
