Keyword Search Page search features are enabled for a component by mapping the component to a search definition. When Keyword Search Page search is enabled, the Keyword Search tab appears as a search page that the end user encounters when navigating into the component. The keyword search page enables users to perform a deeper, more free-form search to access application data from within the component.

Note: All of the PeopleSoft HCM Keyword Search Page searches can also be used from Global Search.
