Course Notes:

• Whenever starting to learn how to search effectively, the Nextpoint Search Guide is a great resource to explain the different fields available, and best practices for building out searches within the app
• Use the Analytics page to build out searches to identify different types of documents, search by different metadata fields, identify documents by specific date ranges, and check the progress of coding for relevancy and privilege status across your database
• The rule of thumb when creating searches is to design them in the following format: Field_name:value. An example would be date:01/11/2002
• Whenever you build out searches that you would like to use/edit frequently, you can save that search and access it later
• For those not yet comfortable building out a boolean search starting from scratch, the Advanced Search tool is an easy way to have Nextpoint guide you through creating the search syntax you would like to use 
• Utilizing search tactics during pre-review and during the review process is highly recommended as they are easy to customize to be broader or narrower as needed
• Filters are typically used in the post-review process to identify documents for production
