How good Endeca Search is for ECM (Search on documents) products

HI all,
I am evaluating Endeca Search (Guided Search) as a search engine for Enterprise content management's .
Basic objectives are -
1) Search engine should be able to search documents with high relevancy.
2) When user sees the search results , he /she should be able to navigate/open the original document.
To be precise, users need is to find and open documents.
So I expect different points of view for the above use case. If anybody implemented similar use case, then please make some noise .
Regards,
Hoque

So I have been involved in half a dozen enterprise search projects using Endeca. Things to consider:
1. Ingesting the documents. (velocity, variety, volume and frequency of change, location of files ). Endeca Content Acquisition Server comes with a variety of connectors for various industry standard document repositories, web and file systems crawls. Document converter for various document types is included.
2. ACL and profiles for users. It is easy enough to create a link to the doc repository and pass credentials of the user. This has been fairly easy to achieve in the past.
3. Search relevancy ( Endeca has a versatile relevancy ranking technology)
4. Apply facets to documents so that they can be refined. Various ways to achieve this.
5 I18N Are the documents one language, multi language.
Check your price points for doing this , there are some systems out there that index everything and provide a basic text search, Endeca can combine structured and unstructured records with faceted navigation but it needs effort and work to do this.

Hi Lakshman,
Everytime user clicks on a new shop, create a session variable and set it to any value.
userSessionData.setAttribute("NEWSHOP","true");
Now go to history.jsp and just above this piece of code put a validation for the value of this session variable and
if its value matches to "true" than only let the below code to execute.After the validation dont forget to remove this
variable from session.
<isa:iterate id="historyItem" name="<%= UpdateHistoryAction.HISTORY_LIST %>"
type="com.sap.isa.isacore.HistoryItem">
Likewise you can work with organizer frame refresh also.Hope this helps you.

KM Search iView for User Search

Hello,
I am trying to create a new iView for User Search based on the KM Search iView Template. However, in the properties of the iView (Property Editor) there is no option to assign the ume index (contains users) to the iView. I previewed the iView, entered just a "normal" search term assuming that the iView would at least search for something, but the following error message occured. "TemplateError during search occurred - com.sapportals.wcm.WcmException: Index is corrupted, rollback required;index=ume,location=iwdf0003:39103 (Errorcode 2008)"
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot,
Katharina

Hi Katharina,
now I understand. The problem is that you can't just use the KM search iView, you need to use a special iView based on com.sap.netweaver.coll.WhoIsWho or com.sap.netweaver.coll.WhoIsWhoNarrow. The configuration to be done (if you named the index for example not "ume") is described <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/05/a62c42de59da2ce10000000a1550b0/content.htm">here</a>.
You can also find this iView in the com.sap.netweaver.coll.demo.CollaborationDemoRole role by navigating to Collaboration Demo -> People-Centric -> Who's Who.
The steps on how to create the ume index are described <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/21/ac21410bc3ef23e10000000a155106/content.htm">here</a>.
Hope this helps,

What character splits search terms (for different search result tabs), searching from the search box.

When we type in a search term, in the search box, the results can be shown in a tab. But how can you split search terms while entering them all at once, each search term providing results in a new tab.
"Search Term|Search Term Two", using |;\ etc only sends the term in entirety beyond. What does this box handle and how to make it open two tabs when given two separated search terms.
So what is this special character or setting?
Thank You

Thank u so Bruce , I finally found an answer to my question.
The solution u provided looks complete except that i am confused by the meaning of strField , may i didnt provide more details in my post .
The strField var i provided earlier was not meant to be placed in my code , the correct one is shown below .However , the strField means according to me is the field against which the search operation should take place based on the ( search Term )
the user provided .
Here is the code after applying the solution u suggested :
'Information collected from the user
strWhereToSearch = IIf(.framSearchIn.Value = 1, "[quknotSubject]", "[quknotBody] ")
strCondition = strWhereToSearch & " Like '* " & strTextSearch & " *' OR " & _
strWhereToSearch & " Like '" & strTextSearch & " *' OR " & _
strWhereToSearch & "Like '* " & strTextSearch & "'"
'Fill result search Recordset
strSql = " Select * from qryExtraTool_QuickNoteSubCatMainCat   "
strSql = strSql & " WHERE   " & strCondition & " ORDER BY quknotDate"
'Control Source for the text box to display matches. ( Highlight the search word )
txtQuickNoteBody = SearchHilight(strWhereToSearch, strTextSearch)
Tell me if my implementation to your code is right ?
Thank u again Bruce ...

How to analyse actual cost for each operation in Process/Production Order?

Hi all,
IN SAP, I know that we can analyze plan cost for Operation in Process Order/ Production Order.
However, I can not analyze Actual cost for Operation .
I know the object when I good issue material is ORDER, not OPERATION.
But, as requirement of users, they want to analyze actual cost for each Operation.
CAn SAP do this analyze?
If Yes, What should I do in SAP to have this reports?
THanks in advance,
Emily Nguyen

Hi Emily,
as I see from one other message that you're using material ledger. Then your expectation is apparently to also see the actual costs of materials in your production order by operation.
This is not supported. Actual material costs are handed up in material ledger multi-level settlement from one material to the next, bypassing the production orders.
That means the production order will always contain the material costs valuated at plan price, not at actual price.
For activity prices that might be better, when you revalue the orders at actual activity prices with CON2. But even there I am not sure that it will always be assigned correctly to the operations.
There is currently an enhancement in development, the operation level costing. But that will affect more the planned cost side not the actuals. Might be interesting to learn more about your requirements and the use case behind.
best regards,
Udo

How do I use "Search Query" for nontrivial searches?

After a few years in the community, this is my _first_ question to the boards ;-)
In speaking with a colleague today, I learned about an NI forum feature that would be useful for me. When I tried to configure it, I then learned that I didn't know how to use it. When I tried to learn how to use it, I further learned that it wasn't fully documented. So, I'd like some clarification :-)
The feature in question is "Search Query" which will send you an email when a forum search matches your query. What I don't know is:
What are the rules (syntax) for search queries? For example, I would like to search for single words, all the words that I specify, as well as exact phrases. How do I differentiate between multiword queries and exact phrase queries?
Is it possible to have more than one Search Query?
If so, how do you delineate them? Would I use commas, a new line, something else?
I'm asking because the available (and discoverable) documentation doesn't mention what to do when you want more than one Search Query. The help text on the subscription page [1] makes me think that only one query is possible, and says a Search Query:
Sends you mail every time a message matching your query is submitted. Search queries take up to 15 minutes to take effect. Saving a blank query will disable this feature and will stop any mail from being sent.
The other place I tried was the NI Forum FAQ [2], which makes me think that more than one query is possible:
If you add a board, thread, message, or search term to your subscriptions, the system will send you an e-mail every time someone posts to the board, or replies to the message or thread. If you prefer not to receive an e-mail for your subscriptions, you can subscribe to the RSS feed of a board, thread, user, or search term.
The FAQ goes on about what to do with board, thread, and message subscriptions, but doesn't say anything more about search subscriptions.
The last place I looked was on the search results page itself. In the blue header that precedes the results, there's a link on the far left that says "Search Options" with a single option that says "Subscribe to this search's RSS Feed". While I could subscribe and use an RSS reader, I really would prefer email. I suppose if only one Search Query is possible, then this will be my workaround.
As a comment, why does the Search Options menu not also have a "Subscribe to this search" option, which would add another entry in the Search Query box? This is a noticeably different interface than the Thread Options menu.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for all of the questions and congrats on posting your first question!
Unfortunately I think all of your questions come from the valid assumption that the search query functionality is more robust than it actually is. The search query functionality really only serves a single purpose and that is to email you when your phrase has been posted to the forums. For me, I use it to email me when my name is mentioned in the forums. It serves this purpose well since I have it set up to work off just a single search term. However I find that multiple word phrases are combined with an OR which is not as useful. The search query does not adhere to any common search syntax that you would expect (I believe we are the only community that uses this feature so it has not been improved upon).
The best way to set up both multiple word queries and multiple different queries is to use the RSS feed as you mentioned. This way you can tailor your search very specifically using different advanced search options and subscribe to them all in one feed reader without constantly getting emails. The search query emails do not adhere to the digest subscription settings. I find that the RSS feeds work very well for searches and I am fond of using them, but I do use an RSS Reader for many things so it is not out of my normal workflow.
Thank you for reading the Forum FAQ. I've done some work to improve it but I think it has a long way to go and it's good to know that people read it

Hi Luke,

This error is only coming in Quality & not in dev. In Dev, It is showing Org Structure for a scenario but in Quality, it is showing a blank screen & giving this error in cds log file.
I have copied SAPOrgUnitDataElement.xml into SAPOrgUnitDataElement_copy.xml & then used standard SAPOrgUnitCostCenterInheDataElement data element to create a linked data element called SAPOrgUnitDataElement (using SAPOrgUnitDataElement_copy & SAPOrgUnitCostCenterInheDataElement).
All the fields in SAPOrgUnitCostCenterInheDataElement got added in source Organization Structure feilds & I have also added cost center name field in view but still it is not showing in scenario Org chart in dev. Because of data issues, I thought to test it on Quality but there I am even not able to see Org chart for a scenario & it is giving above said error in cds log file.
Please help!
