  3. Execute Define Search Applications and verify the search mode and access class.
  4. Assign the search help or HANA search view to the search application.
  5. Allocate the data model and entity type to the search help/view.
  6. Maintain fuzziness for attributes if using HA search.
  7. Create or select the match profile and maintain relevant fields, weight, fuzziness, mandatory flag, and sequence.
