Facet definitions

A faceted search breaks up the search result into multiple categories and allows the user to drill-down or further restrict the search result based on the facets.

The following information needs to be specified:

  • Sequence: The sequence number specifies in which order facets are displayed in the Customer search panel.

  • Key search: This field defines the key search field used for the faceted search. This should correspond to a record in 'Key Search. Open' (CMS030).

  • Field heading: This field describes the facet and is shown in the Customer search panel.

  • Table name: This field defines the M3 BE database table from which the facet is retrieved, for example OCUSMA.

  • Facet name: This value is a four character long value and corresponds to the field in the selected database used as facet. For example, the customer group definition is CUCL and the responsible definition is RESP.

You can click ADD FACETS to create a new empty row to start input information. The Delete link is used to delete a facet row.

Two records are delivered as a default setting.

Sequence: 1

Key Search: SH_CUST_FACET1

Field Heading: Customer Group

Table name: OCUSMA

Facet name: CUCL

Sequence: 2

Key Search: SH_CUST_FACET2

Field Heading: Responsible

Records SH_CUST_FACET1 and SH_CUST_FACET2 are also added in “Key Search. Open” (CMS030) by the Infor Sales Hub Content Package.
