When searching for keywords using the Progressive operator, MDM uses the Inxight stemming

engine to extract the stem (or base form) of the entered search words. as per my knowledge it doesn't harm. here MDM box contains different Stemmer engine for this.

let's wait for some more input.

Hello Vinay

Keyword - stemmer makes your search more versatile

When users perform a keyword search, MDM uses the Inxight stemming engine to extract the stems of their search words. This allows MDM to match the searched-for keyword to records containing the same stem as the search word but having different suffixes.

For example, a keyword search for the word u201Cwalkingu201D will match records containing the keywords u201Cwalksu201D and u201Cwalkedu201D in the tableu2019s keyword-indexed fields, since the search word and all of the keywords have the same stem, u201Cwalk

it is always good to apply this Stemmer on filds like city, Name etc.

while pick list forces user to choose from a set of specific lookup values during data entry, Here in upper post there is very good example for that.

Hope it helps

Hi ,

By making keyword property field stemmer,you allow mdm to create the field keyword searchable.

When you set keyword property to stemmer ,it will add the contents into keyword search index .

basically mdm uses stemming engine to search the keywords using the index concept.

So if you search word like ant it will give result that contain ant ,anttena as the stem of both words are same.

When you set up field to be lookup flat then there is two option available in value selection property

1. picklist : in this whatever values available in the falt table it comes in a drop down and you can directly select the value.

2.mini search : in this you have to search the value on the disolay field og lookup flat then if if that saerch matches any record iot will show you to select any one.Like for ex if you search for vendor then all the value that conatin vendor will come and you can select one of them for main table field

Thanks,
