Pattern Decisions This Source Supports

Pattern Supported decision Required contract Claim note
Query correction Choose query correction when correction happens after an explicit search submission, not while the user is merely typing. Submitting a query records the submitted text separately from any corrected query used for results. Microsoft Search separates spelling suggestions from spelling modification that can return results for the corrected query.
