[Former Member]

Task:

We want to use additonal fields in the enterprise search for contact persons and we have CRM 7.0 EHP1.

Step 1: Create new template set.

Use the same component set as teh original, e.g. BP_APPL for contact persons.

Transaction CRM_ES_WB.

Step 2: Copy template CRM_CONTACT in this newly created template set.

The target template ID has to start with Z.

Step 3: Adjust "Search", "Result" and "Select"-Flags for the attributes

Step 4: Transfer templates

We used BBPCRM.

Step 5: Configure extraction user for indexing.

We used DDIC.

Step 6: Create new search object connector

Transaction ESH_COCKPIT.

Step 7: Schedule indexing

Delete previous content.

Step 8: If errors happend, start indexing in GUI.

Report ESH_IX_CRT_INDEX_OBJECT_TYPE.

Step 9: Test connector

Program ESH_TEST_SEARCH.

The new atttributes should be available now.

Step 10: Set namespace /1CRMES/ as changeable

Step 11: Create search-query-structures

Report CRM_ES_STRUC_GEN

Step 12: Test query in BOL-browser

Transaction: GENIL_BOL_BROWSER

Step 13: Add new query in customizing for enterprise search

SPRO: CRM - UI Framework - Technical Role Definition - Define Central Search

Step 14: Clear cache of central search

Class CL_CRM_CENTRAL_SEARCH

Execute method CLEAR_CACHE

Finished.

Good luck when implementing.
