Hi,

There is no difference between Search helps and match code objects.

Search helps are the Advanced concept of Match codes.

SAP Converted match codes to Search helps.

Index :

An Index is a copy of database table having few numbers of fields. This copy is always in sorted form. As we know, Sorted data would always have a speed access from a database table. Hence, we use an index for the table while reading the database records. Index also contains a pointer pointing towards actual database table so that it can access fields that are not contained in the Index

For More Information About Index :

Thanks.
