When populating a purchase list, you can configure the environment to allow a shopper to search for products and get a type-ahead dropdown of product names. The TypeAhead search interface, which is known in the Oracle Commerce Cloud Search administration UI as a searchable field ranking, displays a search box that is separate from the standard search. This search box presents a drop down list of products that match the TypeAhead criteria.
To enable shoppers to search using the TypeAhead search box in a specific field of a purchase list, do the following:
Determine which field should be made searchable.
Log in to the Oracle Commerce Cloud administration UI.
Mark the field as Searchable as described in both the Know how to make fields searchable section and the Add fields to the searchable field ranking list section in Using Oracle Commerce Cloud.
Publish the changes that you made to the field.
Use the Search tab to access the Searchable Field Ranking page.
Open the TypeAhead ranking as described in the Understand the searchable field ranking list section in Using Oracle Commerce Cloud.
Once you have added the field, and positioned it in the desired position relative to the other fields, save your changes.
For additional information on configuring search settings, refer to the Manage Search Settings section in Using Oracle Commerce Cloud.
