When I search for the keyword 'I170911_009', it comes out empty.
When I search for the same value in the column directly, it returns a record (as expected).
So how do I modify the keywords to search through the vendor_ticket column? I need this for when searching in the global search.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I found it. It seems I needed to click 'Generate Text Index' on the collection dictionary for the table. When I navigate to the table record, the indexes were there, and the check box 'Text index' was set correctly, but despite all that, ServiceNow did not generate the text indexes when I moved the table in between environments... After generating the text index, the search shows the expected results.

Peter - Keywords will be used to search a text on all the fields of the table , reason being keywords are defined on collection and collection is combination of all fields.
I just searched incident in keywords
To know more on keywords use this link List search finds records from the current table

Kunal, this is not how servicenow works. Read my original post again and you notice that it does not work like you just explained. The value is clearly in a field, while it is not found through keywords.
