| WILDCARD | Search for part of a query by adding an asterisk at the end of the search parameter you're using. | |

You have three plans set up named Gold, Gold member, and Gold service. You only want to see customers on the Gold plan but searching for "Gold" will return customers assigned to all. |

The -operator removes any results that include the query following it. In this example, adding the two exclusions will remove any results associated to Gold member and Gold service. |
| OR | Search for two or more separate queries at the same time, essentially looking for X or Y. | |
