Hi Naveen,

It is too difficult for anyone to address all our question and guide you.

I suggest you to go through this help link on creating collective search help.

Further , breakdown your tasks which you mentioned here and search answers one by one.

Hi Naveen,

There's no difference to using a collective search help or a regular search help.

in the attribute of the context that you want the search helps to appear for - specify that the input help is of type dictionary search help, then specify that the input help is your collective search help.

Search helps in WDA, if search help is available at dictionary level, no need to create any search help, you get automatically.

If you want to create search help for any input field, another option is using OVS. we have WDR_OVS component for search helps, you need to reuse this component in your custom component, just change some coding according to your requirements you get search help.

Go through these documentation and helps...

As said by kris, you can use the search help created in dictionary by specifying the same in the context for the some

specific attribute.
