Organization Name
This field is used to enter search criteria based on your organization’s full legal name.
How to use this field:
a. Full legal name – Enter your organization’s full legal name into the “Organization Name” field, do NOT just enter keywords (i.e. if your organization is called Port Moody Minor Hockey Association you need to enter ‘Port Moody Minor Hockey Association’. Entering ‘Port Moody Hockey’ or ‘Port Moody Minor Hockey’ will NOT return your organization).
b. Keywords with wildcards – You can search using keywords if you also use wildcards (%), these can be put at the beginning or end of the word, or on both sides.
If you are sure the word you are
searching for is at the start of your organization’s full legal name, put
the % sign at the end of the word, this will return ONLY those results that
have the word at the beginning (i.e. searching for ‘Port%’ will return Port Moody
Minor Hockey Association and Port Alberni
If you are sure that the word you are searching for is at the end of your organization’s full legal name, put the % sign at the beginning of the word, this will return ONLY those results that have the word at the end (i.e. searching for ‘%Association’ will return Port Moody Minor Hockey Association and Lynn Valley Soccer Association, it will not return The Association of Pastry Chefs).
It is generally best to put the % sign on each side of the word(s) you want to search for, as this will return any results with the word in it (i.e. searching for ‘%Hockey%’ or ‘%Port%Moody%’ will both return Port Moody Minor Hockey Association – as well as a number of other organizations).
