Improve the search function when adding new permissions

Leanne W

This idea relates to adding additional permissions to reports in OTBI, by clicking on More, then Permissions and '+'. We are then presented with the Add Application Roles and Users window. In the search box (when Application Roles is selected from the drop down), only the exact name of the application role is recognized. Partial names (even with a % wildcard search added) result in a 'No results are available for given search string'. For example, it's necessary to search for 'BI Consumer Role' - if searching for 'BI Consumer', no results are found.

This isn't great search functionality and makes the customer's life more difficult as it's necessary to find out the precise name of an application role before attempting to update permissions. It would be useful if Oracle could bring this search in line with most others across the application where a 'starts with' or 'contains' search works.
