Have you tried with Asterisk search. The specimen bulk editor like all bulk editor do only an exact search. The specimen tree editor searches on different fields.
I don't think this is related to protected title caches.
I suggest to close as Worksforme or won'tfix. If not please give back to PP who is responsible for specimen tree editor.

Even if I was pretty sure I did all the tests again. Even with magic wildcard characters it was not possible to get any results in the "Specimen editor (list)". I tried the following patterns: 'OK-1 1788*', 'OK-1 1788%', 'OK-1 1788?'.
So I pass this issue to Patrick.
Your suggestion raises another question: "Why is the behavior of two apparently similar search functions, so much different?" I consider this a usability problem. Either the search functions are behaving the same in the different parts of an application or this must be made clear. Do we have a master ticket for UX problems? I would like to file this issue somewhere.

Have you tried with '*OK.... This is what an exact search expects, if the searched record does NOT start with "OK".
All the rest needs to be discussed and definetely the search functionality in the bulkeditors needs a lot of improvement. But also have in minde, that Specimen (Tree) Editor is something very different to the Specimen (list) editor even if it looks similar. No time to search UX ticket, but I think there is something.

correct the * at the beginning of the search term helps.
I suggest renaming this issue to "improve and harmonize UX of bulk editor search function" or I there already a similar ticket.
Once the meta UX ticket is found we can link or copy the details of this one.
