Team's Response

Thanks for your report. The reported command find d/| is indeed a valid command and the result of find d/| is working as specified in the user guide.

Here are the drug allergy specifications from the user guide: SCR-20240421-qbxi.png According to our UG, the | character are accepted and should be used to separate multiple drug allergies. This makes it a valid keyword in the drug allergy field that is searchable in the find d/ command.

As documented in the UG, the find command was designed to return patients that contain any of the given keywords. SCR-20240421-qlid.png Since | is recognised and utilised within the drug allergy field, it is a valid searchable term. Therefore, find d/| correctly returns all patients whose drug allergy field includes |. This is not unintended but a consequence to our documented design decisions to use | as separators for the drug allergy field and for find to return all patients with matching keywords. More examples could be added to the UG to explain this behaviour.
