Definition

Relations are indexed.

Dependencies

Specifies whether the relations of a certain object type are indexed.

This parameter is relevant only if the selected object type supports the case "Search for objects based on relations". This is only possible if an implementation for the interface IF_COM_SE_BUSOBJ_REL is available for the business object.

Use

Many objects have relations to other objects. For example, person and account, supplier and product, and so on. Indexing the relations of an object provides the option of searching for these objects based on their relations.

Example

A customer 'B' has the account number '12345'. In this case, the person and the account are objects of different types and with a relation. If they support searching based on relations, then it is possible to answer the following query:

Search for all customers who have an account with the number '12345'.
