In Contacts the searchbar just searches by different fields (name, tags, address...). Is there any way to seach generically and not by a specific field?

Hi,

Customize the Search View (search.xml)


If you want advanced filters but still keep the default search behavior, you can add a generic search filter in XML:


<record id="view_partner_search_custom" model="ir.ui.view">

    <field name="name">res.partner.search.inherit</field>

    <field name="model">res.partner</field>

    <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_res_partner_filter"/>

    <field name="arch" type="xml">

        <xpath expr="//filter[@name='name']" position="after">

            <filter string="Generic Search" name="generic" domain="['|','|','|',

                ('name', 'ilike', self),

                ('email', 'ilike', self),

                ('phone', 'ilike', self),

                ('street', 'ilike', self)]"/>

        </xpath>

    </field>

</record>

This adds a generic filter in the search panel so users can quickly search across multiple fields.

Hope it helps

Odoo default search (like in the list or kanban views) is field-based, meaning it searches across indexed fields defined in name, search, or _rec_name.

Generic or full-text search across all fields is not supported out-of-the-box in standard Odoo for performance reasons.

You can enable more flexible search using:

  • Custom search methods (_search_) in Python models.
  • PostgreSQL full-text search with custom SQL or external modules (e.g., searchable_text).
  • Third-party addons like web_advanced_search or Elasticsearch integration.

For end-users: Use filters, group by, and custom search fields in the UI to make queries more intuitive.
