 |  |  |  |  |
When synonym searching is enabled in SAS® Visual Investigator 10.6, the use of a field with the same name in two different entities can cause the following error to occur:
The search could not be completed. The error(s) have been logged and the application administrators have been notified. Error Code: 95224
In the Elasticsearch log, the following type of error message is seen:

Here are the steps that can reproduce this issue:
- Create two entities (Entity A, Entity B) with two fields that have the same name (for example, Field A).
- For Entity A, configure Field A to be a highlighting field and available for synonym searches.
- Ensure that Entity B does not have either of those settings for its Field A.
- Perform a search that will gather data from both entities.
