1. Overview
In the default Magento 1, admin can easily reindex data from backend in the Index Management section. However, this feature is no longer available on Magento 2. Reindex from Backend for Magento 2 will solve this problem by helping admins reindex data without using any command lines.
2. How Does It Work?
Please go to Stores ⇒ System ⇒ Index Management and start configuration.
Choose the Indexers which you want to reindex.
In Action box: Choose Reindex Data.
Choose Submit to complete.
3. Configure BSS Core Module
