Scheduling Periodic Indexing

Once the indexes have been created, you schedule the periodic indexing of the business objects. The shorter the time between indexing, the more up-to-date the search results.

1. In your AS ABAP, call Define Job (transaction SM36).
2. Schedule program COM_SE_DISPATCHER as a background job for periodic execution.
   Note

   We recommend processing the program using the default settings on the selection screen. This allows delta indexing to take place across all active indexes.

   Caution

   If you activate the search engine service later in a system that already contains data records, you have to run a one-off full indexing process. For more information on this, see the system documentation for the program.

3. Optional: You can easily monitor the periodic indexing process using the SES_ADMIN transaction.
