Background documentationEmbedded Search

 

Every application that uses SAP NetWeaver as its underlying technology platform can use Embedded Search as the technology for basic searches. Embedded Search allows you to search all structured data in an application in a unified way.

Embedded Search contains tools for creating and changing search models.

Note Note

To run Embedded Search, you need the standalone engine Search and Classification (TREX) or SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse Accelerator (BWA).

End of the note.

Note Note

The capabilities of Embedded Search are limited to indexing and searching within a single SAP system (single SID). To extend the search to cover two or more systems, the SAP software SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search is necessary.
