By default, CA Data Protection ignores the hyphen in hyphenated words when searching for key words or phrases. This provides built-in flexibility to detect variations of words that are inconsistently hyphenated. For example:
Note: CA Data Protection does not ignore other occurrences of hyphens. For example, the search text Recruitment - May 2010 only detects an exact match of this phrase, that is, "Recruitment - May 2010".
Detecting Hyphenated Words and Space-separated Words
Sometimes, normally hyphenated words or phrases can occur as two separate words. But CA Data Protection does not treat hyphenated words and space-separated words as synonymous. Be aware of this distinction when defining trigger search text. Use a | logical OR operator to detect both hyphenated and space-separated occurrences of your key words or phrases. For example:
|

But does not match: |
|
long term |

long-term or longterm |
|

|

|
{long term}|{long-term} |
long term, long-term or longterm |
