How to Keep Better Records with Search ID and Reference
Updated on 31 March 2026
< 1 min read
The combination of Search ID and internal reference is one of the simplest ways to improve your organisation’s control and follow-up capability in J-Cred.
Better record-keeping habits #
- Capture the internal reference before you submit the search.
- Retain the Search ID once the search is created.
- Store both together in your internal system or case file.
- Use the same identifiers when contacting support or raising a dispute.
- Do not rely only on portal visibility if the record may be needed later.
Tip: These two details often make the difference between a fast support interaction and a slow one.
