Bug ID: 30533
Summary: Add exact search option for patrons
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Patrons

A patron search for names like "JOHN JOHNSON" ends up getting parsed something
like "WHERE surname like "%JOHN%" OR firstname like "%JOHN%" OR surname like
"%JOHNSON%" OR firstname like "%JOHNSON%"" and finds a really unhelpfully large
pile of patrons.
Bug 17500 suggests implementing Elastic for patron searching, which would be
great.
In the meantime, we could give a little help for searches like this by giving
an exact search option -- so the query would parse more or less the same but
without the wildcards. That's also a problematic search for many situations,
but would work better here.
