How do I configure integrated HANA Search for MDG-Financial Master Data in model 0G?

Integrated HANA Search for MDG-F is enabled by generating the correct MDGF_0G_* Search View, then registering the corresponding _DQUERY_HA HANA Search UIBB in MDG_BS_GOV_COMMUNICATOR. It supports free-text search, fuzzy search, and ranking; if MDG_FOUNDATION_15 is active, HANA Search is already the default search.

Integrated HANA Search for MDG-F is enabled by generating the correct MDGF_0G_* Search View, then registering the corresponding _DQUERY_HA HANA Search UIBB in MDG_BS_GOV_COMMUNICATOR. It supports free-text search, fuzzy search, and ranking; if MDG_FOUNDATION_15 is active, HANA Search is already the default search.

Integrated HANA Search in MDG-F is configured in two main layers: first generate the relevant MDGF_0G_* Search View in MDGIMG, then assign the corresponding _DQUERY_HA Search UIBB in CUSTOMIZE_COMPONENT under MDG_BS_GOV_COMMUNICATOR. The source says HANA Search provides free-text search, fuzzy search, and ranking, and that MDG_FOUNDATION_15 makes HANA Search the default search without further steps.

Process flow

  1. Confirm the required MDG/S4HANA release content is installed.
  2. Verify HANA connectivity to the MDG system.
  3. Start MDGIMG and navigate to General Settings → Data Quality and Search → Search and Duplicate Check → Create Search View.
  4. Filter for the required MDGF_0G_* Search View and open it in edit mode.
  5. Enter the HANA package supplied by the HANA administrator, save, then choose Next through the wizard and Generate.
  6. Start CUSTOMIZE_COMPONENT and open MDG_BS_GOV_COMMUNICATOR.
  7. Enter the communicator Configuration ID for the financial object and create customizing if required.
  8. In Configuration Context, expand settings and add searchUibbs; maintain Search Mode HA, Search Help, Component FPM_SEARCH_UIBB, and the HANA Search UIBB Config ID from the source mapping or Appendix A.
