This topic describes how to configure full-text searches for products in the Sales order form. After you define search criteria and parameters, users can enter search terms in the Item number field of the Sales order form to perform a full-text search of the product database. The search results show the products that match the search terms. The results also show availability information for each product.

The following table shows the prerequisites that must be in place before you start.

  2. In the Define criteria form, in the Type field, select Item.

  3. On the Action Pane, click New.

  4. The View or table field is set to MCRProductSearchView. In the Field name field, select a field to search in the MCRProductSearchView view.

  5. Continue to add field names as you require. At a minimum, effective searches require the following fields:

    • ItemID

    • NameAlias

    • ProductName

  6. On the Action Pane, click Refresh to update the entries in the search index table.

  7. Click Sales and marketing > Setup > Search > Search parameters.

  8. In the Search parameters form, set the options as you require. For example, enter information about the number of search results to return, and specify whether search terms can be partially matched.
