Hi Jiten, I confirm that the trunk version of the webclient does apply the '=' operator. This is a big step in the right direction. Apologies for not checking earlier and for the fact that I have not mentioned the 6.0 branch explicitely above. Again, there still is a strong case for searching by id instead of by character string and I am glad to have it as a wishlist item.
The 6.0 branch, revision 4577 still seems to apply the 'ilike' operator on our systems but I will double check some other time. Cheers, Stefan. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenERP SA's Web Client R&D, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751197 Title: [Search] Many2one combobox implies discrete search for particular resource, but does substring search instead Status in OpenERP Web Client: Confirmed Bug description: In the webclient, the search field for a many2one field provides a combobox with names of discrete resources, as well as a selection icon to select a discrete resource in a popup window. At the same time, the search field does allow the user not to select a discrete resource but leave his raw input as a search criterium. The latter implies a substring search, which is indeed the case. The former case, in which the user does select a single resource as a search criterium strongly implies a search on a uniqe resource. However, in this case the performed search is a substring search as well. Example: In my database, I search for partners in the Netherlands. Once I start to type something like 'Nethe', the combobox offers me the choice between Netherlands and Netherlands Antilles. If I select 'Netherlands' from the dropdown options or select this resource through the selection icon, I would expect the resulting partners all to reside in this country, but instead I get partners in the Netherlands Antilles as well, because Netherlands is a substring of Netherlands Antilles.
