What is Conditional searching used for?

Conditional searching is a powerful feature in data management that allows users to search across various field values without being limited to what is currently displayed on the screen. This option provides flexibility, enabling users to query multiple fields and retrieve data based on conditions applied to those fields. This capability is particularly useful in scenarios where relevant information might be present in the database but not immediately visible in the current viewing pane or layout.

The focus of conditional searching is on leveraging the underlying data fields—regardless of their display status—to find matches based on specified criteria. This means that even if certain fields are not currently visible to the user, the search can still access and evaluate them against the search criteria defined.

In contrast, the other options represent more limited forms of searching. For instance, searching solely on text content restricts the scope of the search and may omit potentially significant results based on field values. Meanwhile, searching only on visible fields narrows the querying capability further, and a singular focus on the title field could lead to missing essential information located in other fields.
