In this Customizing activity, you can define customer-specific search configurations, search field groups, and search fields. If you want to use the standard search configurations, search field groups, and search fields, you do not need to make any settings in this Customizing activity.

Search Configurations

You use a search configuration to specify which fields from an Embedded Search search request are to be used for a particular search in Talent Management, and how these fields are to be arranged in the search template and in the search results list. A search configuration always refers to exactly one search request of a search model that was modeled in the Embedded Search.

Search Field Groups

In the view Search Field Groups, you can define groups for search fields for each search configuration. For each search field group, you specify the description that is displayed on the user interface. You also specify the sequence of the search field groups in the search template.

The following types of search field groups exist:

  • Root search field groups
Such groups comprise fields that are available on the user interface directly as search criteria.
Note
Root search field groups are all groups whose technical name contains ROOT.
  • Search field groups for grouping search criteria
Such groups comprise search fields that belong to the same topic (for example, search fields on the topic of "Education"). The search criterion is selected in two steps: First, the user selects the search field group, for example, Education. Then the user opens a dialog box in which the search fields of this search field group (for example, Broad Field of Education or Education Type) are available as search criteria.

Search Fields and Fields for Results List

In the Search Fields view you specify which fields are displayed in which order in the search results. If you use the extended results list, you make the following settings for the results list:

  • Which of the fields from the column set are to be displayed in the standard view (see Use As Standard Column)
  • Which of the fields displayed as standard columns are to be fixed in the left-hand side of the results list (see Fix Column)
Note
You can use the fields S_EMPLOYEE_PICTURE (employee photo) and S_GRID_ICON (calibration grid icon) in the results list only and not as search criteria. The content of these fields is not provided by the TREX server. Instead, the system must read the content of these fields from the database when structuring the results list. This can result in performance problems. Therefore, these fields are not contained in the column set in the standard SAP system.

In the view Assignment of Search Fields to Groups, you can assign the search fields that are to be available as search criteria to your customer-specific search field groups. You can also specify the sequence of the search fields in the search field group.

Note
Assigning fields to search field groups only affects the search template and not the search results.
Search field groups are only displayed on the user interface if they are assigned search fields. Search fields are only displayed on the user interface if they are assigned to a search field group.

Displaying Qualifications in the Search Results

If you want to display qualifications in the search results, proceed as follows:

  1. In the Search Fields view for the field S_QUALIFICATION_STEXT, make the following settings:
  • Set the indicators Insert into Column Set and Use As Standard Column.

  • In the Position in the Results List field, specify in which position in the search results the qualifications are to be displayed.

  1. In the Selection of Qualifications for the Results List view, make the following settings:
  • Select the qualifications you want.

  • For each qualification that you want to display in the search results, set the Use As Standard Column indicator.

  • For each qualification that you want to display in the search results, in the Position in Results List field, specify in which sequence the qualifications are to be displayed.

Example
In the Search Fields view, you set the indicators Insert into Column Set and Use As Standard Column for the fields S_QUALIFICATION_STEXT and S_TALENT_GROUP_STEXT. In the Position in Results List field, enter the following:
  • S_QUALIFICATION_STEXT: 5

  • S_TALENT_GROUP_STEXT: 6

In the Selection of Qualifications for the Results List view, you set the Use As Standard Column indicator for the qualifications A, B, and C, and enter the following in the Position in Results List field:
  • Qualification A: 1

  • Qualification B: 2

  • Qualification C: 3

The system then displays the columns Qualification A, Qualification B, and Qualification C as the fifth, sixth, and seventh column in the extended results list. It displays the Talent Group column as the eighth column. All other columns are moved to the right accordingly.

Displaying Appraisal Elements in the Search Results

If you want to display appraisal elements in the search results, proceed as follows:

  1. In the Search Fields view, make the following settings for the field S_DOCUMENT_ELEMENT_STEXT:
  • Set the indicators Insert into Column Set and Use As Standard Column.

  • In the Position in Results List field, specify in which position in the search results the appraisal elements are to be displayed.

  1. In the Selection of AES Elements for the Results List view, make the following settings:
  • Select the appraisal elements you want.

  • For each appraisal element that you want to display in the search results, set the Use As Standard Column indicator.

  • For each appraisal element that you want to display in the search results, in the Position in Results List field, specify in which sequence the appraisal elements are to be displayed.

In the Customizing activity Activate Extended User Interface for Search, the value of the switch EXTENDED_SEARCH_UI must be set to X. If you want to make settings for the extended results list, the value of the switch EXTENDED_SEARCH_RESULT_LIST must also be set to X.

  1. Define customer-specific search configurations by copying a search configuration provided by SAP and making your changes to the copy.
  2. Define customer-specific search field groups for your search configurations.
  3. Assign search fields to your search field groups.
  4. Specify which qualifications are displayed in the search results as required.
  5. Specify which appraisal elements are displayed in the search results as required.
  6. Then, in the Customizing activity Assign Search Configurations, assign your customer-specific search configurations to the Talent Management searches.
