Configure the Entity Search Fields

In this tutorial, we will configure the following fields to appear in descending order in the

tab of the

Search for Data Objects

dialog box when a user searches for Product entities:

Product Name

Product Number

Product Description

Product Type Code

Row ID Object

Acquire a write lock.

In the Model workbench, click

Hierarchies

In the navigation pane of the Hierarchies tool, select the Product entity type node under the Default hierarchy profile.

In the

column in the

HM packages

section, assign numbers to the columns that you want to appear as search fields. The column that you assign the lowest value appears at the top of the list of fields.

Click

Save

Repeat the steps for the Product Group entity type.

In this example, the Product Type field and Hub State Ind field are not assigned a number, so those fields do not appear in the

Search for Data Objects

dialog box. The Product Name field appears at the top of the list of fields because we assigned the lowest value to Product Name. The Rowid Object field appears at the bottom of the list because we assigned the highest value to Rowid Object.

The following image shows the

tab as it appears in the Hierarchy Manager:
