Overview

A fuzzy search finds matching results even when you misspell, interchange, or miss one of the keywords. When you perform a search, Axon implements fuzzy search and displays matching results. For example, if you type "logal" instead of "legal," "legal record" instead of "legal entity record," or "Data Party" instead of "Party Data," Axon displays matching results by ignoring the typographical error. 

Axon provides matching results if the two characters of the keyword are interchanged. For example, if you type "Cutsomer" instead of "Customer," Axon ignores the error and displays the matching results. You can implement fuzzy search across all English and non-English languages and characters. Axon finds matching results if a keyword sounds similar but has a different meaning in multiple languages. For example, if you search with the keyword "acao," Axon displays matching results with "acao" in English and "Ação" in Portuguese. 

If fuzzy search is enabled, you can also use the wildcard character (*) at the beginning or end of the keyword in the search box to find matching entries. An Admin or SuperAdmin profile user can choose to enable the fuzzy search behavior from the Admin Panel. The fuzzy search applies to both Unison and Quick searches.
