Abstract:
A method for presenting a graphical user interface (GUI) of an enterprise software application connected to a server, the enterprise software application comprising at least a multi-tenant database, is provided. The method receives, at the server, user input comprising a search; generates, at the server, a set of search results based on the search, the set of search results being associated with entities of the enterprise software application, each of the entities comprising a respective database object containing predefined categories of data, the multi-tenant database comprising at least the database object; determines a priority order of the search results, based on user interaction history with the entities; and presents, via the GUI, the search results according to the priority order.
