KM Search iView with dropdown option to select

[Former Member]

Sttings Done: We have integrated various repositories with SAP KM like cFoder,DFS(File Server),DMS,MS SharePoint

Requirement : Develop a KM search iView with standard options + option to select Datasource and Doc. type from drop-down with values

I know that I can achieve this either by developing a new search component from scratch or by developing new search component and integrate the same in search component set.

But I want to know if it is possible by means of configuration like creating custom property and setting some values. As I can set the values cFoder,DFS,DMs,MS SharePoint in each integrated folders custom property value. And TREX can search on custom properties.

Help apprecited.

Hi Amol

You can almost achieve this in the way you like.

If you create one index per area (SAP KM like cFoder,DFS(File Server),DMS,MS SharePoint), there is a search component which includes a search area with a dropdown next to it. You can use this search component for your scenario, but please bear in mind that the search component with dropdown functionality does not support multiple selection of datasources.

If you to support that you have to use another search component without a dropdown or develop your own.
