Item Keyword Search Scheduled Process Actions

The Item Keyword Search scheduled process is used to create and maintain the Item Keyword Search index.

You can use the following actions for the scheduled process:

Note: Before you use CREATE, DROP, and REBUILD actions, consult with Oracle Support.
  • CREATE: Creates the index, if not present. This action indexes all items in the instance.

  • DROP: Drops the index. Use this action only when the index is damaged and it needs to be indexed from the beginning.

  • UPDATE: This action checks if any additions or deletions have been made to the list of keyword attributes using the Manage Keyword Attributes task. This action will reindex either all rows or the affected rows, depending on whether predefined attributes have been added or deleted.

  • REBUILD: This action will reindex all rows. Use this action only when the index is damaged and it needs to be rebuilt. The process of rebuilding the index takes a longer time to complete.

  • SYNC: This action processes the index changes in the queue.

    After adding a new language to the Keyword Search Index, you must run the Item Keyword Search scheduled process with the SYNC action. If you don't run the schedule process with the SYNC option, you don't get an index search result. The scheduled process can't find the items because they are not yet indexed.

You don't have to enter values for any of the remaining fields on the page.

During an upgrade, if you have scheduled this scheduled process before the upgrade, you must cancel the scheduled process and resubmit it after the upgrade.
