Result Based Search

Result Based Search is the most simplest form of search available in OAF. Below are the main features of Result Based Search

  • Fully declarative approach- No coding effort is required. You just need to create query region
  • Automatic Search Criteria- Query region automatically creates the search criteria for the columns that you have selected as Search Allowed true
  • Automatic Header Region- Header region is also created automatically containing all the columns that you have selected as Search Allowed true 

Select construction mode as resultsBasedSearch




Auto Customization Criteria

In auto Customization Criteria, after adding the query region we have to create the search criteria manually. Also, search header page has to be created manually. Search items as well search mapping also need to be created manually.  

Construction mode: autoCustomizationCriteria


Manual Search

In manual search, each step is manual. Search code will be written in Controller of the page.
