Full Indexing

Full indexing can be executed against all entries in the selected business component or connector (the Index operation), or all entries in the default Search Definition listed in the Search Index Settings applet, adding any new fields from the field mapping file (the Index All operation). Upon successful completion of indexing, the Status Code changes to Indexed, and the Status Details column details the number of rows indexed.
