Compliance Accelerator - Adding phrases with wildcards to Hotwords

Hi,

As per the administrator's guide for Compliance Accelerator, one must use double quotation marks when adding phrases to hotwords. Can I use wildcard words when adding a phrase to the hotwords?

For example if I want to add the following phrase to the list of hotwords: a comp* word

If yes, then how would I do it?

  • Yes, you can use a wildcard in a phrase:

    You can append a wildcard character to the end of the word or phrase to represent other characters. An asterisk (*) represents zero or more characters, and a question mark (?) represents exactly one character. For example, the hotword commodit* matches both "commodity" and "commodities".

  • Thanks for the quick reply Tony, but the part where I'm confused is: do the double quotation marks play a role when I'm doing so?
     

    for example if I'm adding a comp* word to the Hotwords, would I be entering "a comp* word"

  • Could have sworn I replied to this.  Yes, that is how you would want to enter it.
