Discovery Accelerator - Search results, can you review without accepting

I'm working with Discovery Accelerator at the moment and I'm wondering what the story is with the search functionality within a case

You create a case and you do your search/ searches.  Now as far as I can tell the only means of review to see if your search results are right is the number of records returned?  that's why the underlined statement below in the DA help confuses the hell out of me.

The only way I can look at the results is by accepting them for review,  Once I have done that I can't modify the search if it wasn't right.  Because I can't then remove an incorrect search I have to delete the case and start again.  I have to say it seems to me to be one of the most unintuative features of the whole system and I'm a lead infrastructure analyst who put EV and a SAN in,  what the hell happens when I unleash this on the users?!?!?!?  They are going to go nuts!!

Can someone confirm if this is the correct understanding of how it should operate,  it's doing my head in!!
 

When you have created a case, you must search for information to include in it. This process involves the following activities:

  • Running one or more searches on the relevant vault stores for suitable information. Discovery Accelerator offers a wide range of search criteria from which to choose: words and phrases to look for, date ranges, message size, author and recipient addresses, and more.

  • Studying the search results to assess their suitability, and then either accepting or rejecting the results.

    That is incorrect.  You CAN review the results of a search in DA before accepting the results. They do not show up in the review sets but if you click the Results button you
    can review your results. This is for DA 8, but DA 2k7 has similar functionality.

    You can see my search is pending but I am reviewing my results.  (with limited functionality as I can not mark the messages until I accept them.)

    I am actually under the "Research" TAB and when I highlight the search I've just created. This seach still shows a "Pending Acceptance" status.

     It only shows an "Archives" button at the bottom of the screen without a "Results" option next to it.

    Thanks,

     If you click on the case Then highlight the search which results you want to review

    The bottom of the screen you will see a Results tab
    Click on this and it will display the results of your search

    If you want to expand the reviewing screen click on the icon which will be in the blue bar on the middle window in your results screen (the icon looks like a miniature window with arrows pointing outward from each corner

    Tony,

     I may be missing something...but I am running this version and ran a search in our LAB and did see the "Results" button.

     Today I am running a search in production and in the LAB but cannot see the "Results" button. Does anyone know what are the steps that need to be followed to assure that this option is visible?

    Thanks,
    Dennis

    Unfortunately this is the way it is meant to behave.  Quite simply to meet compliance standards.  The idea of DA is a application that can produce results that can be contributed as evidence in court.  You can review the results and refject/mark/filter relevant data as you see fit, but what you cannot do is manipluate the search criteria.  I am not a lawyer, but the only reason I can think of this is manipulate results, but I can assure you it is there for  a reason and not to be difficult.

    Dont forget that you still have the ability to search against a journal for example, using normal search functionality before submitting any search to DA.
