[Koha] Thesaurus not working for "used for/see from"

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Tasha,

see from headings are not automatically included in catalog searches.
Have a look at the IncludeSeeFromInSearches system preference.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

If I attempt a search for one of these unlinked terms, no results are found-the thesaurus isn't working.  Surely, something must be wrong with the MARC authority record, but I'm not sure what and I'm looking for suggestions!

These records functioned fine in Millennium.  Does Koha expect/require additional metadata to make these metadata searchable?  Perhaps it is a Global System Preference that is incorrect?

My expectation is that if I search my OPAC subject index for a phrase that is in one of the 450's below, I should retrieve any bib records with a 650 field that contains "Brined cheeses", but no results are found.  Maybe I am completely misunderstanding how authority records work?
