Configure the Entity Search Fields

Configure the Entity Search Fields

In this tutorial, we will configure the following fields to appear in descending order in the
Search
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
  1. Acquire a write lock.
  2. In the Model workbench, click
    Hierarchies
    .
  3. In the navigation pane of the Hierarchies tool, select the Product entity type node under the Default hierarchy profile.
  4. In the
    Search
    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.
  5. Click
    Save
    .
  6. 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
Search
tab as it appears in the Hierarchy Manager:
