• Key Concepts: 
  Index attributes are used in the Knowledge Warehouse (KM-KW) component of SAP to classify and organize knowledge objects. They are used to assign a set of values to a knowledge object, which can then be used to search for and retrieve the object. Index attributes are also used to group objects into categories, making it easier to find related objects. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Index attributes can be assigned to knowledge objects in the Knowledge Warehouse (KM-KW) component of SAP. To assign an index attribute, select the object and then select the “Index Attributes” tab. From there, you can select the desired index attribute and assign it a value. Once an index attribute is assigned, it can be used to search for and retrieve the object. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning index attributes, make sure that you assign values that accurately reflect the content of the knowledge object. This will make it easier to find related objects when searching for them. Additionally, try to use as few index attributes as possible; too many index attributes can make it difficult to find what you’re looking for.
