Description
Sharon has identified that in a search that was off by one character the actual serial number was not retrieved as a potential match. See below. It is expected that a search that is only off by one character would still show the desired result in the results set.
Note: This is currently the functionality in the old PPR search algorithm as well, so is being logged as an enhancement.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by locating the PPR search implementation and its existing search tests, then reproduce the one-character serial-number mismatch. Done means the expected serial number appears in the results for a search differing by one character, consistent with the old algorithm.
