 You can explicitly annotate calculated elements to make them searchable, even though they aren't searchable by default. The virtual elements won't be searchable even if they're explicitly annotated.

+#### The `@Common.Text` Annotation 
+
+If an entity has an element annotated with the `@Common.Text` annotation, then the property that holds the display text is now by default added to the searchable elements. Example:
+
+```cds
+entity Books : cuid {
+  title  : String;
+  @Common.Text : author.name
+  author : Association to Author;
+}
+```
+The default searchable elements of `Books` are `title` and `author.name`.
+
+::: warning
+Do not use both `@cds.search` and `@Common.Text` annotations on the same entity, unless `@cds.search` is used only to exclude fields. If both are present and `@cds.search` includes fields, the `@Common.Text` annotation will be ignored.
