## Story
As a competent authority, I want to be able to search using full or partial identifiers of a business, so that I can get back relevant results to help me find the significant individuals associated with that business.

### General Requirements
1. All the data collected in the SI registration filing should be available to display.
The person search is an extension of director search so that a search may return both directors and significant individuals.

**Search field:**
1. User can search by business name, Incorporation / registration number, business number.
2. Provide text describing an example of valid search terms referenced in 1.
3. Exact match feature can be used to restrict results.
4. If the user is authorized to see both directors and SIs, then they will see all directors and all SIs linked to that business. Otherwise, they will only see either SI or director results, based on their authorization level. (not in scope for this ticket).

**Results table:**
1. The number of columns in the results may exceed the width of the results table, so there will need to be a way to scroll through the table horizontally.
2. The way to scroll through the columns needs to be intuitive and noticeable.
3. The Maximum results to export tool remains the same.
4. The Export to .xlsx link remains the same.
5. Data visible in the search results by business:
• Business Name
• Date of incorporation / ceased
• Incorporation / Registration Number
• CRA Business Number
• Business Type
• Business Status
• Beneficial Owner(s) (hyperlink to person search)

Research direction

Start by locating the existing director search, since this request extends it to business searches returning directors and significant individuals. Compare its search fields and results table with the listed business identifiers and display columns. Done means users can search by the specified identifiers, optionally restrict to exact matches, horizontally review results, and retain the existing export behavior.
