Search Symbols

"Search Symbols" can be utilized to specify how you want to search for data in TracCloud. Whether that be all MAT% registrations, or students of all Majors except for #Mathematics, these symbols should help to narrow down your search.

Alphanumeric
Symbol Description Example
% Wildcard / Search for fields that contain this value. Students.First_Name=Jo%
# Not / Search for fields that don't match this value. Students.First_Name=#John
| Or / Search for more than one value at a time. Only applies to Power Search. Students.Major: Biology|Photography
[null] Search for a null value #sql:In-State#=[null]
Numeric
Symbol Description Example
> Greater Than Duration=>90
< Less Than Duration=<90
<= Equal to or Less Than Duration=<=90
>= Equal to or Greater Than Duration=>=90
... Date range, used without specifying a field. 2021-01-012021-12-31

Combining Multiple Searches
Multiple statements can be used in sequence to find records that match more than one value at a time. The searches are simply separated by a space. The example below shows the process for searching for Major and class.

Combining Multiple Symbols
Multiple symbols can be used at once as well. In the example below, we're searching for all students with a major that does not contain the phrase "Engineering." This would exclude students who have a major of Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Etc.
