/images/arrow_right.png ISearchTMA interface V1.00/ 3 Aug 2025 
The ISearchTMA interface allows browsing and retrieval of detailed service information from the "TMA::LKAAT" tariff catalog. A search process in the service record domain of the selected tariff catalog can be performed by code, name, or chapter respectively. The search terms may be specified in full or may include wildcards. After a successful search, all of the available information directly related to the search term is made available through the interface"s properties.

The search method (e.g. SearchGeneral) produce as a result a selection list, composed of zero or more service records. The total number of records in the list can be retrieved with the GetRecordCount method. The record pointer is initially positioned at the first entry of the selection list and the positioning methods MoveFirst, MoveLast, MoveNext, MovePrevious, PutAbsolutePosition, and GetAbsolutePosition are used to manipulate the selected record. The information related to the current record is made available through the interface"s properties like GetName for retrieving the service title.

There are further search methods that are specific for specialized task like search for main trigger services (service is of type P(OR) and/or P(notOR), or to search for an ICD code usable in a certain capitulum.
