Search field delimiter maintenance (ASGD1111)

On this panel you enter the delimiters which will be ignored by the system when creating search fields. The delimiters are also used to begin the next search field when processing a character string. Special characters such as -:&|¤*+()%= which should not be included in search fields may be entered.

For example:

If a word or name such as DC1-US is created in the Work with items or Work with business partners programs, and this panel does not contain the dash (-), one search field for DC1-US will be created. If this panel contains the dash (-), two search fields will be created; DC1 and US.

Note: For example, if a search field is created for an item description and the item description is X47BE RED WAGON, three search fields will be created: X47BE, RED and WAGON. This means that the “blank” character will always separate words.
