    (URM-109753) Added "OR" Boolean Operator to PO Lines Advanced Search Indexes

    August 2022 AcquisitionsURM-109753

    Alma enhances the capability of the PO line advanced search by adding the "OR" boolean operator. The added boolean operator enables Alma's advanced searches to be more consistent with other search values. For instance, previously in Alma, advanced searches for All titles enabled users to select both "AND" and "OR" boolean operators, whereas only the "AND" operator was available for Order line advanced searches.
