Use

In this IMG activity, you define which business objects the search engine service should be used for. In addition, you can configure indexing details for each object type.

Requirements

Standard settings

The standard settings are configured in such a way that you do not need to change them in most cases.

Activities

• Settings for the Business Object

  Here you must provide an ABAP-OO class for each business object that is to use the search engine service. This ABAP-OO class must implement the IF_COM_SE_BUSOBJ interface. At various times, the search engine service gets all the information that it needs using this interface.

  You must add new entries here only if you want to use the search engine service for customer-specific business objects or want to use it for SAP standard objects that are not supported in the standard delivery.

  If you create your customer-specific business objects using the master data framework, the required entries are automatically generated in both of the views described here.

  For existing entries, you need to change the ABAP-OO class only if you want to make it possible to search additional customer-specific attributes in existing business objects. For more information, see the interface documentation IF_COM_SE_BUSOBJ.

  Some business objects also support the activation of additional attributes for the search through simple Customizing settings. For more information, see the implementation guide (IMG) for the respective application.

  Example:
  Master Data Management -> Master Data Objects -> Products -> Alternative Product IDs

• Settings for the Object Type/Index

  Many business objects distinguish between multiple object types or allow customers to develop their own customer-specific object types.

  Example:
  The system distinguishes between the following types for the business partner:
  1 - Person
  2 - Organization
  3 - Group

  The various object types differ most often in the list of their relevant attributes. For example, the attribute "birth name" attribute is relevant for people, but not for organizations.

  An index is created in the search engine for each object type. You can define some of the indexing details in this view using the following parameters:

• Priority of the Index
• Maximum Number of Parallel Tasks
• Maximum Number of Objects For Each Index Update Package
• Scope of Log for Delta Indexing
• Multilingual Objects
• Key Mapping Is Being Indexed
• Fast Delta Update

  One parameter in the view cannot be directly changed and cannot be transported:

• Index ID

  This parameter is set automatically if an index in the administration UI of the search engine service is created or changed (transaction SES_ADMIN).

  You can make further settings for indexing directly in the search engine. For more information about the SAP TREX search engine, see the SAP Help Portal.

Example

If you want to set up the SAP standard flight example, you need to create the following two entries:

• Settings for the Business Object
  Business Object = SFLIGHT
  Class for Bus.Object = CL_COM_SE_BUSOBJ_TEST_FLIGHT
• Settings for the Object Type/Index
  Business Object = SFLIGHT
  Object TYPE = 1
  Multilingual = X
  For further settings, see above.
