More Information
Summary:Systems and methods for using a semantic search to address business entities that fulfill certain criteria are provided. A free search term may be determined by a user for the semantic search. The free search term may include any object type, element or parameter the user would like to search for. An ontology which relates to a specific business or industry may be used for the semantic search. The ontology may include various business classes, roles, and individuals. In some implementations, the ontology may be generated from metadata of business objects. The semantic search may be conducted across the entire ontology to obtain search results that match the free search term. As a result, business entities that fulfill the free search term may be retrieved and provided to the user.
