Hi sumit, here's the code sample of how this can be achieved through backoffice-config.xml files

 <context merge-by="type" parent="GenericItem" type="Order" component="advanced-search" >
          <advanced-search:field-list >
             <!-- Add the custom field here -->
             <advanced-search:field name="customerfield"  />
          </advanced-search:field-list>
     </advanced-search:advanced-search>
 </context>

Hi Dhanunjay,

Thanks for the response, but the sample you have shared is to add the attribute of the same item type in advanced search, but in my case i need to add attribute of different item type . I have that itemtype added to my item type but not the attributes.

Like Order have Account Item type, and Account type is having the attribute ID. I want to use the ID attribute from account type to search my order.
