R12.1.2 Supplier search

could you please explain why when you query a specific supplier using supplier number it's fetching all the records though you've not put a wildcard at the end of it. My expectation is that only this number will be queried.

for example..you're querying a supplier number 11079, the system will display all records with like 11079 (1107912,11079120,11079131 etc.)
