Enabled Attachments

Within PeopleSoft Search Framework, attachments are allowed for some search definitions that are used within FSCM. For example attachments are enabled within the purchase order, requisition, and contract search definitions. If large numbers of attachments are enabled, performance degradation can be incurred when building the index and performing the search.

To remove attachments from being included in an index, delete the attachment from the Search Definition - Attachment Properties page. However, if you decide to include attachments in the Search Definition at a later time, then you should track the current settings of the page so you know how to add the reference back if needed.

Note:

Removing attachments within a search definition is considered a minor customization. Any changes you make to existing search definitions or other PeopleSoft delivered objects should be tracked as with any customization. For more information on Search Definitions, see PeopleTools: PeopleSoft Search Technology.
