Searching the Accession Number Field

The accession number is a unique identifying number associated with each record in the product. It consists of an accession number (a product identification code) and a sequence number.

Always join multiple numbers by the OR Boolean operator. Do not use AND, NOT, NEAR, and SAME when searching for accession numbers: the  product will return an error message.

Enter a unique accession number to find a specific record. For example, DRCI:DATA2012019000048048 finds the record that is associated with this unique accession number.

Enter a partial accession number and include an asterisk (*) wildcard at the end. For example, DRCI:DATA2012019000048* finds all records that begin with this accession number (the example does not include the sequence number), such as:

  • DRCI:DATA2012019000048048
  • DRCI:DATA2012019000048051
  • DRCI:DATA2012019000048064
  • And so on ...

Enter a partial accession number and include both left-hand and right-hand truncation. For example, *19000048* finds all records that contains these numbers in the accession number.
