We are experiencing difficulty with the Product search functionality in the Product Window. Currently, the system only returns results when the full product name is entered. This makes the search process time-consuming and inefficient.

Ideally, we should be able to search by entering any part of the product name—whether it's the first, middle, or last word—and the matching products should appear accordingly.

If there is already a solution for this, please guide us. Otherwise, we kindly request that this feature be enhanced to support partial and flexible search.

Looking forward to your response.

The message should not have been deleted; instead, a respectful and considerate response should have been given, about Product Search Functionality

The current product search method feels like a workaround. Unlike modern ERPs that allow searching by any part of a product name, this system requires the full exact name, which is inefficient and slows down workflow. A proper search feature is expected as a basic ERP function.
