2770951 - Outlook add-in shows a different number of search results to C4C.

Symptom

When searching a particular account via the server-side Outlook add-in, the number of results differs between the systems.

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer Outlook add-in

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open Cloud for Customer, for example, Accounts.
  2. Search for a particular customer with multiple entries.
  3. The system shows the search results, for example, 7 results.
  4. Open Outlook and logon to the add-in.
  5. Search the same account using the server side Outlook add-in.
  6. The number of results is not the same as in C4C, for example, 3 results.

Cause

Search results are limited to 5 records by design. This value is not customizable.
In addition, server-side integration filters out Accounts, Contacts and Individual Customers which are obsolete or in status "In Preparation".

Resolution

The customer can narrow down the search by adding more search criteria for accounts in the profile settings and use them in the search.
