Integration of TREX/Enterprise Search

Hi,
is it possible to integrate TREX/Enterprise Search into a web dypro application? That means the user can put a search string into an input field in a web dynpro application, the request goes to the TREX and the result will be shown in a web dynpro table.
Are there any documentations? How to handle this? I couldn't find anything to manage this.
Thanks.
Regards, Susanne

The ABAP Dictionary F4 Search Helps (transaction se11) are supported by Web Dynpro ABAP in the same way as with SAP GUI.
Note that the function module TREX_EXT_SEARCH_DOCUMENTS is an SAP internal interface.
It is not released for customer use, i.e. you cannot claim SAP support for your implementation.
Instead you should use a released search framework, that resides on TREX.
For details read SAP note 1254901 - SES for customer projects on TREX search
If you need a cookbook, how to include your specific search help into a standard F4 search help, you can refer to SAP note 1345777 (FAQ SES), chapter 8.
Cheers, Klaus

  • Integration of Oracle RDF and Enterprise Search

    Hi,
    Has anyone tried integrating Enterprise Search with the new RDF feature to enable true semantic search?

    It would be interesting to hear from people who have tried this in an application.
    As an FYI, using RDF query capabilities in Oracle, simple PL/SQL code can be written to do this. Consider search based on a query term X. SDO_RDF_MATCH can be used to find all terms related to X in a given ontology/RDF data set. All these terms can then be used in the 'Contains' operator that is part of Oracle Text, to find all documents in a table that contain any of those terms. We have some sample code to do this, if you are interested write to me at melliyal <dot> annamalai <at> oracle <dot> com. Tighter integration is being planned in a future release as well.
    RDF queries can be also combined with other relational queries. An example in Oracle of simple SQL to combine querying RDF with a relational query is as follows:
    SELECT emp1.name, emp1.salary
    FROM emp1, TABLE(SDO_RDF_MATCH(
    '(?name :fatherOf :Matt)',
    SDO_RDF_Models('family'),
    null,
    SDO_RDF_Aliases(SDO_RDF_Alias('','http://www.example.org/family/')),
    null)) t where emp1.name=t.name;
    The father of Matt is found by querying the family model (represented using RDF) using SDO_RDF_MATCH, and his salary is found out by doing a join with the table emp. Since the output of SDO_RDF_MATCH is a table, it can be easily joined with other relational data.

  • PLM Enterprise search integration

    Hello,
    We are using both PLM & MDG-M.... In PLM enterprise search, I'm getting the search options as below...
    1. In this, I want to rename the Material as MDG Material. <I tried renaming the description in Modeler, But it doesn't help >
    2. If I search for material either selecting the Material option or All objects, For material, It should go to MDG search not the PLM search.....
    <I tried modifying the PLM search in SPRO.... But I want to know the MDG search class name and other details >
    Kindly advice.... Thanks!!

    Hi,
    it depends on the release of NetWeaver Enterprise Search you are using.
    If you have installed Enterprise Search 7.2 than you can use different technics for integrate a 3rd party search engine.
    But if your 3rd party search engine supports OpenSearch (see OpenSearch.org) than you can use this.
    NetWeaver Enterprise Search 7.2 supports OpenSearch Interfaces.

  • SAP-DMS and NetWeaver Enterprise Search 7.2

    Good day Experts,
    I will be thankful to you if anyone can help me with the following query.
    In SAP-DMS, we have got a reporting transaction CV04n which has got a facility to search for 'Text Search Within Original'. There is neat procedure if one wants to configure this feature for SAP-DMS. The procedure is as under
    (Re: Document text search in cv04n with TREX)
    1) Transaction: SRMO
    Install TREX search engine, and create RFC destination to connect to
    TREX.
    2) Transaction: SKPR06
    Check the flag to Document Area "DMS" to utilize this document area for
    document search.
    3) Transaction: SE38
    Run the report program "RSTIRIDX_REINDEX" to create Index.
    Also, run the report program "RSTIRIDX" to create Index as well.
    4) SPRO IMG customizing; (Create MIME Types)
    Cross-Application Components > Document Management System > General
    Data > Settings for Storage Systems > Create MIME types for full
    text search, Enter MIME type such as "application/msword",
    "application/pdf".
    5) Then, test retrieval document search using
    Transaction: SKPR07.
    Enter Document Class "DMS_PCD1", Language "EN", Document Class "DMS",
    and try "TEST search".
    We know from Karsten's SDN post (What is really 'SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search' ) that this feature is possible with NW Enterprise Search 7.2
    u201CWith SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 having collected the Embedded Search indexes, the local search functionalities stay active and at the same time SAP NW Enterprise Search enables central search access to all Embedded Search systems in the landscape.u201D
    Our query is as under
    Does SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 ; which has got its own integrated TREX engine needs assistance from TREX engine from our landscape to make this feature work. This is important becuase then we have to have two different set ups.
    A set up for SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 which is a separately licensed product.
    A set up for TREX engine which is part of NetWeaver  licence.
    Regards,
    Sham Bapat

    Good day Sham!
    The answer is:
    No, you will not need the local PLM TREX anymore, as soon as you have installed SAP NWES 7.2 and pointed your PLM there instead of the local TREX.
    And, I repeat, your local search functionality inside PLM will still work anyway.

  • Can I configure Enterprise search to search a Relational database

    We have several legacy web applications. We are currently using coveo to search the relational databases. We create mapping xml file for the coveo indexing services. The coveo access the database using jdbc. It provides the ability to create uri for search result. The uri is invoked when the user clicks on search result.
    Can I setup something similar with SAP Enterprise search.

    Hi:
    SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search contains an SAP NetWeaver BI instance within the architecture on the appliance.  You can utilize the BI features to extract data from your relational DataBase, then index that data into the TREX part of ES.  BI features both "DB connect" and "UD Connect", which give you techiques to connect the BI system to an external DataBase and extract data.  You will need to model a DataSource, but the features of SAP NetWeaver 2004s BI make this relatively easy.  Once you have a datasource, you can create an Open Hub destination for indexing (with a transformation and DTP to deliver the data), and create a process chain to extract and index the data.
    ES offers numerous DataSources "out of the box" for extraction from SAP ERP systems, you could follow the business content structure for those, but instead use DB connect or UDconnect to get the data from a non-SAP system.
    For more info on this, see the BI area of SDN and help.sap.com > NetWeaver > Key Capability > Information Integration > BI.
    Thanks for any points you choose to assign (they are the way of saying thanks on SDN).

  • Talent Management - Talent Search and Enterprise Search

    Hi All,
    We are on ECC 6, Portal 7 SP3.
    We are using Talent Management Business Package. Under Talent Management-> Talent Information, there is an iView called Talent Search(which is based on the Webdynpro ABAP "hrtmc_search").
    For this Search functionality I have read that SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search is needed.
    My question is:
    1. Is TREX required for Talent Search. I've read that it can be integrated with Enterprise Search. Please note that we are not using KM and Collaboration. 
    2. Is it necessary to integrate AS Java with Enterprise Search since it will only be used for Talent Search iView which is in any case a webdynpro abap application.
    So in this case Enterprise Search will only be integrated with AS ABAP / ERP system - Is this assumption correct.
    Your input and help is much appreciated..
    RD

    Hi RD,
    the TREX you will need for this will be specific to HCM and called via HCM's own strategy in ECC 6.0. This - for all I know - should be through AS ABAP for indexing and AS Java for searching.
    This should have nothing to do with the Portal's access to TREX, as the functionality is HCM's, even if provided to Portal in an iView. For the specifics, please check your HCM Master Guide and other documentation and/or discuss with your technical consultant for ECC 6.0.
    Best, Karsten

  • Queries on Enterprise Search

    Hi,
    I have started learning abt Enterprise Search. I have some queries on it. Pls clear my doubts.
    1. It has been said that, "SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search is delivered as an appliance with the software preinstalled on dedicated hardware"
    So, once necessarily needs to by the hardware to use Enterprise Search or this is just another option ? if possible some detailed explanation on it.
    2.Are there some reference customers for this product ? and generally who is reference customer for a product?
    3.What versions of SAP does it support ? R/3 4.6, etc.

    Hi Art Tech,
                       I am glad that my response helped
    There are customers already in rampUp but I am not aware of any details about the customers.
    Regarding you query on extending the connectivity, two types of connectivity is possible.
    1. Connecting to a search service provider (delegate the search to a web search engine like Google for example)
    2. Connecting to a search data provider (in this case, we have to do data extraction and indexing in addition to searching)
    With SAP Netweaver  Enterprise Search 7.0 the first type of extension is quite easy. For the second type of extension, you would need to use say TREX to do indexing and then delegate searching to the connector and this is not provided out of the box with the product.
    ERP2005 provides a search service called SES (Search Engine Services) and we utilize SES to connect to ERP2005. Since this is not available in ERP2004, we donot provide any default connectors to ERP2004 business objects.
    Hope this helps.

  • PLM 7 and Netweaver Enterprise Search

    We installed PLM 7.0. We also had an existing TREX server and we set that up to do indexing in ABAP. Now we have a requirement to use PLM UI on the portal and we need the search results to display there. All the docs I have read are basically saying we have to use Netweaver Entrprise Search for any search to work within the portal. Can anyone confirm this? Or maybe does anyone know if its possible to display search results in the portal just using TREX and embedded search.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help in advance.

    HI Storm,
    We are in the same decision making for moving from TREX 7.0 to 7.1 with Enterprise Search Functionality as we are planning to go for SAP PLM 7.0.
    We have gone thru no of documents & presentation which suggest to go for TREX 7.1 for SAP PLM 7.0 (which is access able thru EP or using the NWBC)  to take advantage of the Enterprise search functionality.
    you can reffer to following notes
    SAP Note 1164979
    SAP Note 1266024
    SAP Note 1249465

    Hello,
    The reason for having a dedicated and seperate hardware for Enterprise search or TREX (Text retrival search and classification) to gain better performance and fast retrival text.
    You would point or refer your technical landscapes (Portal, BI, KM, CRM, ECC 6.0 etc.,) to this TREX which is installed on a seperate hardware platform. This will help us to retrive the information fastly from all the above systems to end user desktops.
    However, before using enterprise search or TREX you need to download, install and configure the TREX  on this desired hardware platform. From Netweaver 7.0, I guess it is part of installed components.
    For more information see this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d5/d79d937d8c47519c254de44b1aa517/frameset.htm] .
    Do make some search on service marketplace and sdn forums before implementing.
    I hope this help.

  • CV04N: Is it possible to JOIN TREX fulltext search with other data ?

    Dear DMS gurus.
    ...in CV04N.
    Is it possible to JOIN a TREX fulltext search with other data (e.g. document data, classification characteristics, object links,...) ?

    Dear Erik
    Thanks for the good piece of Information you have shared.
    Regarding the OSS note 1332745 it clearly says that
    "SAP PLM Consulting integrated the TREX technology into the central search components of SAP DMS.
    Searchable content:
    - Main DMS attributes (e.g. document number, status or descriptions)
    - Long texts
    - Classification Data
    - Originals (e.g. full text search on PDF, Excel or Word documents)
    - Customer-specific content (e.g. append fields of DRAW, own tables, ...)"

       2. Change the app pool for the Search Service Application to SharePoint Web Services Default in the properties of the Search Service Application.
    Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage service applications > Highlight the Search Service Application > Click Properties in the ribbon > Change
    the two app pool to SharePoint Web Services Default: App Pool For Search Admin Web Service and Application Pool for Search Query and Site Settings Web Service.
        3. Run PS command to check if the search admin timer job is enabled: Get-SPTimerJob
    job-application-server-admin-service | fl. If it is not enabled, use PS command to enabled it and then reset Internet Information Services: Enable-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service.

  • HANA hardware instead of Business Warehouse Acellarator in the Enterprise Search scenario

    Hello SAP experts,
    we have a use case at the Australian Department of Human Services where we
    want to try out SAP Enterprise Search but have no BWA hardware. Instead we have HANA boxes.
    Can we use HANA hardware for the functionality the Business Warehouse Acellarator in the Enterprise Search scenario delivers (Trex indexing , Snapshot queries)?
    Thanks for a quick answer...
    Cheers
    Oliver Buschmann

    Hi Oliver,
    in generally it should be possible. However in the BWA case it could be hardware dependend . You can prove  if your HANA box is fine for BWA installation using the checkBIA.py script which is a part of the BWA installation. Or you can just put the information about your HANA hardware here and we check it for you.

  • Can we Implement TREX for searching of PO in SRM?

    Hello Experts,
    Can we implement TREX for searching of purchase order in SRM portal?
    I dont want to use SAP NW Enterprise search 7.2 tool using which we can directly search B.O. in SRM.
    I want to implement it using TREX in SRM portal.

    yes this can be done !
    check POWL customizing in IMG. -- set TREX based search for feeder type
    The documents have to be indexed in TREX for the full-text search to work.
    The TREX Search Engine is delivered with SAP SRM, but you must first install it and run program BBP_TREX_INDEX_ADMIN. This program creates a new index for existing documents and enables all new or changed documents to be indexed automatically

  • Access Enterprise Search via ABAP Web Service

    Hello ES experts,
    I am looking for more information on how to access Enterprise Search via ABAP web service QSDispatcher, using processQuery operation. I created a client proxy and need information on structure of input and output parameters (query and query result)
    Thanks, Srdjan

    Hi Srdjan
    You can access the SAP ABAP system by configuring it in the NW ES admin console, any system with version > 4.6C can be integrated in the search engine.
    The UI for NW ES is a WebDynpro via Web Browser (In the future will be integrated in Widgets and Portal, etc) but i'm not sure if you want to use the WS to access the results of the ES searching or if you want to integrate a WS from ABAP as part of the searching area...
    Please clarify.
