Global Search results? (Not sure where to post this...)

edited Jan 8, 2020 3:31AM in SuiteCloud / Customization

I hope I hit the correct forum. 

I have Matrix items that when you type in the parent, all of the child records will display in Global Search but if I continue to type it then expects the full item to be typed out.

Example item(s)
Parent102008
Child Records 102008001, 102008022, 102008023  through 102008020 (20 total child items)

When in Global Search if I key 102008 the parent and all 20 child records show
but since the 7th character represents a specific attribute (say color) if I continue to type 1020081 then it shows no results found until I type the whole item number

I couldn't find a preference or setting to control how global search entry works.
