Lost Animal Report - Possible Matches

The Possible Matches tab will show shelter cases which are potential matches for the Lost Report.

The example indicates there are three potential matches. In other words, there are three shelter pets which might be the lost pet. A matching case may be viewed by clicking on the case and clicking the 'View record' button (or double-clicking on the case).

Side By Side potential match example

Notice how the side by side is showing each comparison that is done to determine the match possibility between a lost animal report and a sheltered pet. In this example, each comparison shows no 'Fail' results (notice there are only yellow and green comparisons, none are red). Therefore, this lost animal report and the shelter pet are viewed as a 'potential' match.
