Enhanced Quickfind support for Internal References containing '.' decimal points

In v2023.5, Enate's Quickfind is being enhanced to allow users to be able to search for text strings which contain '.' decimal points. This is designed to make it easier for users to search using internal (i.e. non-Enate) reference numbers. Previously this '.' character was ignored.

Example:

Previously, if a user was searching for a reference number of '12345.12555', the search would have ignored the '.' character and searched for two separate strings either side of the dot marker.

Now, Quickfind will recognize this as a single search string and search for '12345.12345 in its entirety.

In the image above, a user has begun searching by typing '12345.12'. Quickfind has started bringing back results which contain 12345.12.

This enhancement will support numeric reference numbers which contain a '.' character up to 10 digits, e.g. NNNNN.NNNNN, and any variants of this with the '.' character anywhere within the string.

It should be noted that Quickfind does not support other digit separators such as commas, or multiple decimal points within a single string, for example '100.34.67'.
