Lotus Notes - Document does not shows in view BUT when i do a search it comes up

I have a Lotus Notes database in which a view shows up empty, BUT when i do a search (using basic notes search functionality), it returns some documents. How can this be possible? Also how to make those documents show up in the view.

I tried updating the Readers field of the documents, but that also didn't worked.

Please help.

There is very high probability your view shows response documents, but not their parent/main document. Response hierarchy is ignored after FT search, therefore they show up.

Simply, turn off "Show response documents in a hierarchy" in view properties or rewrite selection formula.
