How cSearch works

The content of this website is last updated to F2 version 11. cBrain are working hard on supplying you with the newest documentation of F2.

Unlike F2’s other search options, cSearch uses pre-indexed data based on the user’s latest F2 activities. This is comparable to Internet search engines such as Google, Bing, etc., and presents the user with the search results almost instantaneously.

Searches in cSearch range from simple singular word searches to advanced combinations of phrases and metadata. On completing a search, the versatile preview window shows at a glance whether the result is useful.

cSearch lets the user perform searches across all of F2, which is not possible using F2 Desktop. Results from cSearch may be transferred to F2 Desktop, to the “cSearch results” list.

Basis for searches

F2 cSearch searches the metadata of records, cases, and documents, including participant information, as well as the content of record documents, attached documents, approval documents (add-on), and other documents. It also searches chats, notes, annotations, and requests (add-on).

F2 cSearch does not search log files or case guide data (add-on), but does search cases, records, and documents from case guides. This also applies to data from the F2 Meetings add-on (documentation available in Danish) in which F2 cSearch searches the “shadow records” created on the basis of agendas and minutes, but not the text of the meeting window.
