[Pruitt, Adrienne]

Thanks to the user who wrote to remind me about wild cards! *87059245470 works and gets around the text issue.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Barcode search question

Hello, all,

Many of our top containers have barcodes that start with IM or ARMS (like IM 87059245470), indicating which offsite storage facility they're at. Using the manage top containers functionality, I can't search for barcodes that include text like that. It would be very useful for me to be able to do so. Is this expected functionality? Has anyone else noticed this issue? If you've come up with a fix or a workaround, I'd love to hear about it. (We're in 2.0 right now. I feel like this search worked at some point, but I wouldn't swear to it.)

Thanks,
