Description
On the staff dashboard when staff complete a search they can search by incorporation, registration or filing number. It's not clear when a result is returned whether the result is incorporation number, registration number or filing number. Note: we do require the prefix for company numbers but it's easy to overlook this and get confused. The old system does not always use the prefix, hence this confusion.
The business has requested that we add clarity on what is being returned. This could be changing the resulting table to clearly highlight what was returned, updating search to separate incorporation/registration number search and filing number or any other proposed design approaches.

**Example: Data is created**

Research direction
Start by reproducing the staff dashboard search described in the issue and reviewing the attached screenshots. Compare the returned incorporation, registration, and filing number cases, then define a design that makes the returned number type and company-number prefix expectations clear; done means staff can identify what was returned without relying on the old system.
