Variant Sku Search

[Katie]

We can have our SQL based search provider adjusted for this ability. Its complicated for FTS providers due to some constraints of Full Text Searches and how we manage our variants. For example considering most variant SKU will have pattern like BASESKU-VARSKU which means FTS will not be able to index such SKUs considering they have punctuation marks(-). If some one tries to search a keyword with punctuation marks on FTS provider it falls back to SQL Criteria queries.

If we look at Mazhar's post, and from what I also understand, is that FTS has a constraint where it will not be able to search or SKU's formatted with the hyphen.
