NAME SEARCH CRITERIA There are several Search Type options: • ALPHA: A “less is more” search. The less information you enter into the search, the more results you will receive. This is the default search type. • PHONETIC: The search results are based on how a word sounds. This type of search may be helpful if you do not know the exact spelling of a name. • ALPHA & PHONETIC: Combination of alpha and phonetic search. This type of search will provide the broadest set of search results. • EXACT: Search results will only include the exact name that is submitted. • TEXT: Allows the use of a wildcard (*). For example, a search for *Freight* will return results that include Air Freight Services Inc, American Continental Freight, and other names with “Freight” somewhere in the name.
