In Pega 8.3 ,We are  using Elastic search to search work objects on particular fields  defined in 'custom search properties' We are using this feature to search work objects with some texts and get results.

example field pyDescription 

 Scenario :  Case ABC-1  has pyDescription = Activité des personnes

If the search text  = Activité  ,  Then ABC-1 case is shown in result list

 If the search text  = Activite  ,  Then ABC-1 case is expected to be in result , but since the é is not in search text it doesnt show ABC-1 in result.

How can we perform accent insensitive search, in postgre we can use COLLATE French_CI_AI  can we use something like this
