Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method for implementing a value help search that includes receiving a value help search criteria from a user and sending the value help requests to multiple backend systems using a server computer system in a service oriented architecture system. Sending the value help search criteria may include a specific search help name to one of the multiple backend systems. The value help search service receives both metadata and result data from said one of the multiple backend systems. The metadata describes the structure of a search results. The value help search service may generate a search result table from the result data received from the backend system.
