In B2C Commerce Business Manager you can create stop words and synonyms, modify guided search ranking, view statistics, view index documents along with their indexed fields, and rebuild indexes. You can also manage the capabilities of full text search indexes.
The search index uses one index for each index type: Product, Spelling, Content, Synonym, and Suggest. This index contains all localized and non-localized data for all storefront locales.
Dependencies between indexes require that some indexes are built together.
