Updating the Searchable Field Properties

After you index your data, if you update some of the properties of a field, the indexes become outdated. You must run the Initially Index Smart Search Data batch job to update the indexes.

The following table lists the field properties and their updated values that require reindexing:

Property	Updated Value
searchable	enabled
displayable	enabled
filterable	enabled
facet	enabled
fuzzy	enabled or disabled
suggester	enabled
language	Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or English

If you disable the following properties for a field, some of the indexes might become outdated and irrelevant:

searchable

displayable

filterable

facet

suggester

The outdated indexes can affect the performance of the search requests. You can run the Initially Index Smart Search Data batch job to clean the outdated indexes and improve the performance of the search requests. The Batch Viewer tool of the MDM Hub Console displays a warning icon for the table that requires reindexing after you update its field properties or add a field to it.

The following table lists the Batch Viewer icons that indicate the status of the indexes:

Icon	Description
	Indicates that the indexes of the tables are up-to-date.
	Indicates that some of the indexes are outdated and irrelevant. You can run the Initially Index Smart Search Data batch job to reindex the data and remove all the outdated indexes.
