Chapter 14: Working with Item Keyword Exclusions (WEXC)
Purpose: Use Work with Keyword Exclusions to exclude certain words in the item description from being created as item keywords, if these words would not be useful for keyword scanning.
About item keywords: You can use item keywords as a way to identify and scan for an item other than by item number. For example, if you sell books and the item number is a code, AN8975H, and the description is the title of the book, "The Outer Ring," you may want to use the author's name as a keyword: "Newbold." This way you can scan for items (books) that have been written by the author, instead of scanning for a specific item (by item code or the title of a specific book).
When to use exclusions? The system automatically creates item keywords based on the words defined in the item's description if the Auto-Generate Item Keywords from Description (F79) system control value is set to Y. You might want to exclude words such as "the," "with," and "on" from being created as keywords; although these words might be part of an item descriptions, they would not be useful for scanning.
