After 2021.2 update some roles are unable to search for objects they used to be able to

This is probably an easy fix that I am confused with. We were upgraded to the new release and now our Payroll Accountant cannot search for employees. She used to be able to type the name and have it come up.

I told her to use emp: and the name and still no results, however if they type "Employees" in the search bar they can go to the employee page and view and edit any record they please.

What switched in the new release to remove employee names from being able to be searched? I read through the release notes and I don't see anything related. Other roles have the ability to search like they always have done, so it seems like a permissions issue.

Howdy, Stranger!
