As the platform,

I want to support configurable searching and filtering for all management modules,

So that users receive accurate and consistent search results regardless of the module they are using.

---

Business Rules¶

Every searchable module shall use the same search behaviour.

Every filter shall only return matching records.

Search and filters shall work together.

---

Functional Requirements¶

1. Search¶

The system shall support searching using one or more configured fields.

Examples

Country

• Country Name

Supplier

• Supplier Name
• Company Name

Package

• Package Name
• Destination

Partner

• Company Name

---

2. Search Behaviour¶

The system shall

• Ignore uppercase and lowercase differences.
• Ignore leading and trailing spaces.
• Support partial text matching.

---

3. Multiple Filters¶

The system shall support applying multiple filters simultaneously.

Only records satisfying all selected filters shall be returned.

---

4. Default Filter¶

If no filter is selected,

The system shall use the default filter configured by the module.

---

5. Reset Filters¶

When filters are cleared,

The complete dataset shall be returned.

---

6. Empty Result¶

If no records match,

Return an empty result.

---

7. Unsupported Filter¶

If an unsupported filter is requested,

Display

The selected filter is not supported.

---

8. Invalid Filter Value¶

Display

The selected filter value is invalid.

---

9. Performance¶

The component shall support searching and filtering efficiently even when the module contains a large number of records.

Users should experience minimal delay while retrieving search results.

---

Acceptance Criteria¶

Scenario 1¶

Given search text,

When matching records exist,

Then matching records are returned.

---

Scenario 2¶

Given multiple filters,

When matching records exist,

Then only matching records are returned.

---

Scenario 3¶

Given search text and filters,

When both are applied,

Then only records satisfying all criteria are returned.

---

Scenario 4¶

Given filters are reset,

When search executes,

Then all records are returned.

---

Scenario 5¶

Given no matching records,

When search completes,

Then an empty result is returned.
