Use View as Search Entity in Search Select Advanced field.

I found out that I can use custom entity as Search Entity in Search Select Advanced field from the link below but can I use View as Search Entity in Search Select Advanced field and how do I do that?

    Hi Guys,

    I was looking into this today and found it can be done. You just have to change the SS_SearchTables translation to the name of the view (see the linked article if you don't know what I'm talking about). If you are creating an SSA on a View in addition to the normal Entity SSA (as I was) then copy the 4 translations from the existing entity and change the SS_SearchTables and SS_Entity values (Chaning SS_Entity sets the caption when you configure the field so you can distinguish between the two).

    Hope this helps someone.
