Clarification on Searching on MDM catalog

24 Views

Hi! I have a couple of questions relating to searching and the MDM UI which I want to get clarification on.

1. What is the keyword search based on? Only the description? Can it be based on say part number as well?

2. What is the use of the Free Text Search in the MDM UI Configuration? I can see that the field will appear on the Advanced Search screen for searching and the search did work when I select Free Text Search for 'Supplier Part Number' on the UI and enter the part number on the 'Supplier Part Number' search field when shopping via MDM catalog. I thought initially that by selecting it, it becomes part of the keyword search, i.e that I can key in the part number on the Keyword search field to search for an item but it didn't work.

Appreciate any comments on that.

Cheers!
