Attendee Search by Name Badge: FirstName & organization-level-number from Top of country responsible

[panes-rubrics]

In meeting for:

1. same level of organization

2. from different continents:

Name badge has following information:

1. Jo

2. Canada

Because Title is not there, my CFO guessed Title is same as his but CFO but does not exist in continent under Jo.

is it possible to search using following:

1. Jo

2. 3 (which is organization level from top of country responsible for)

Otherwise, how to search with Name Badge on someone who attends meeting from a different continent?

Hi @panes-rubrics 

As an end user you do not see what expenses/ attendees are input by other employees. The only option is to create your favorites and use them when recording your expenses.

The Attendee Outlook Integration feature was available in the past but no longer available in the current NextGen UI.

Best regards,

Rohan

I cannot post here link  posted to Microsoft hoping for votes to elevate probability of feature to offload challenge which could also apply to others:

Global Enterprise Contact Search beyond wildcard? add ① Country Names Abbreviated? ② Organization Level proximity? ③ Country responsibility?

However, my use case is searching contact with non-exact criterion which is a superset of wildcard.

Example:

Internal contact to find with Partial Criterion:

Name = Jon

Country = USA

Title = Accounting

Company = ?

Outlook Database

First Name	Country	Title	Company
Jon	Europe	Accounting Head	ABC
Jon	United States	Accounting Clerk	XYZ
Joan	Europe	ccounting Head	ABC
Joan	United States	Accounting Clerk	XYZ
John	United States	Head of Business	ABC

After using Title as search, I am now confident Title is wrong for John because no search result come close to First Name; above took time but how to proceed with

Name = Jon

Country = USA

Would you show me your steps?

PAIN POINTS when limited to wildcard search:

1. Outlook search result does not show Names, Country and Title w/o more clicking/scrolling.
2. Company Name is not useful when its name is not known ahead of time.
3. United States cannot be found using "USA"

IMHO, in the very least, how to customize Outlook intelligence on search by country? I can only find contact using "United States"

Why not:

1. "US"
2. "USA"

Jon	Europe	Accounting Head	ABC
Jon	United States	Accounting Clerk	XYZ
Joan	Europe	ccounting Head	ABC
Joan	United States	Accounting Clerk	XYZ
John	United States	Head of Business of Canada	ABC

Since my Manager use Team Chat to send me names, the better solution is Name Check in Teams Body field

My post to Microsoft Teams App as follows

After more exploration, am I correct Who bot is intended for To-Field not Body-Field? what I wish is Who bot is also intended for Body-Field.

USE CASE: To Field is not where Who bot is needed.

Manager in hurry sends subordinate partial Name and Title of stranger (but colleague) in a party; subordinate need Full Names. To Field is not where Who bot is needed.
