Example 1: the search supplier returns 183 results.

Example 3: The search invoice supplier returns no result.
AND operator
The AND operator enables to include all of the terms in the search regardless their order.
The search supplier AND invoice returns 17 results.
OR operator

The search supplier OR invoice returns 378 results.
* operator
