Thanks for the feedback, Feng!

The name representation (shown in reports and tree view) and the actual fields
are two different things. 

The name representation is just that, a string constructed from different
fields, puncutation and other formatting chars. You can not search that
string.

If you want to find a people or patients that have with first name and
lastname, then you would pre-append the fields.

Taking your example, If I want to search all the people with the first name
"Feng" and lastname "Shu", I would type, in the generic search bar:

Patient:Feng Lastname:Shu

See the example with Ana Betz

Again, most of the time, you should look for the PUID / federation account,
which uniquely identifies the person.
