Rebuild the Search Index Manually
Even though some changes in your NetSuite account automatically trigger a search index rebuild, you can also rebuild the search index for your site manually. For information about events that trigger the search index to rebuild, see Events that Trigger Search Index Rebuild.
You’ll usually do a manual rebuild if you want to force a rebuild right away instead of waiting for NetSuite to do it automatically.
After you initiate the rebuild process, it can take up to 10 minutes to start rebuilding the search index. How long it takes to finish depends on how many items you’re indexing.
You can only request a search index rebuild twice in a 24-hour period.
To manually rebuild the search index for your site:
-
Go to Commerce > Websites > Website List.
-
Click Edit next to your website.
-
On the Web Site Setup page, choose Actions > Rebuild Search Index.
A popup message will let you know there’s a limit to how many times you can request a rebuild.
Note:The Rebuild Search Index option is still there if your site is marked as Inactive, but clicking it won’t start a rebuild.
-
In the popup message, click OK to rebuild the search index for this website.
-
(Optional) Open the Job Status page to check the status of the rebuild process. For more information, see Check the Search Index Job Status.
