Configure the Search or Query Results Display

Configure the Search or Query Results Display

You can use the Provisioning tool to configure the business entity views that you want to use for search. A search result includes only the fields that are part of the business entity view that you configure for search results. You can also configure the order in which the search filters appear.
Before you configure the searchable views, create the business entity views that you want to use for the search results.
To display child record fields of a business entity in the search results, use a business entity view that is transformed from a business entity. Ensure that the view includes child record fields at the root record level.
