   : Need to create a multi-value group for Contacts phone numbers. What
should your first step in this configuration be?

Choose your answer«.

 Create a new Business component to store the phone numbers.

 Determine which column on the base table you can use to store these phone numbers.
 Determine which column on the 1:M extension table you can use to store these phone
numbers.
 Run the MVG wizard in Siebel Tools, specify the business component, and have it
automatically select the appropriate column.
 Examine the existing application to determine whether there is already a MVG you could
leverage to store the phone numbers.

Read below for correct practice.

 

 

!" [Principal Architect at Fujitsu Services]

A solution design approach to the same question would be based on a checklist of Process,
Functionality and Data.

The requested change is to have available a list of contact telephone numbers, the context of the
request on the process? Functionality already in place for phone numbers? and data stewardship?

For example, if the request requires additional telephone numbers, then is the purpose to provide
marketing with more contact points, or Service organization to have a prioritized list of contact
points« since a telephone number can represent a fixed or wireless contact point. Is there a
process (either manually stated or automatically initiated) that requires more than one contact
telephone number. If there is, then how is this change going to be incorporated into those
processes? and hence where in Siebel is this process supported.

For example, functionally the data quality of telephone numbers can be problematic. Especially
in cases where the captured phone number will be used systematically as part of a CTI solution
to dial the number, or incorporated into telephony service to SMS a wireless number. Need to
make sure the use of ³DTYPE_PHONE´ is understood at all points the phone number is
available to be captured (or more importantly) available to be changed.

For example, data stewardship needs assessment on whether the additional contact telephone
numbers will be ETL¶d through to an analytics/data mining/reporting tool, or whether there is a
centralized Contact management database that may need replication of this information. Many
Siebel implementations are integrated into a wider Enterprise landscape where simple changes
such as this impact other areas of the Enterprise. Also, can these phone numbers be acquired
from an external system where they are managed and owned in which case there is no need to
store then in the Siebel data model but manage/sync them in real-time to the external data stored.

The following is taken from Siebel documentation around CME; ³The example shows a call
center running the Siebel Communications application. The company maintains an ERP database
and a phone number database separately from the Siebel Database, which contains customer
information.
Siebel Communications sends XML messages containing customer orders to the order
fulfillment application, and receives order fulfillment status through an inbound HTTP adapter.
Siebel Communications also queries the phone number database for available phone numbers in
real time. ´

Every Button created have a specific functionality associated with it, a task that is performed just
on a click. We can create and place a button either on the applet header or we can provide the
same functionality option in Menu Items.

( Search Applet Name where a Button needs to be added.

) Query the Applet name in Tools (For Example µSIS Account List Applet¶).
† Click on Control under same Applet.

*Create New Record in Control with following detail.¶

 Name ± µDeleteRecord¶
Caption-String Override ± µDelete¶
HTML Type- µMiniButton¶
Method Invoked ±µDeleteRecord¶

+ Navigate in µApplet User Prop¶ under selected Applet (µSIS Account List Applet)

,Create new record here with following detail

 Name ± µCanInvokeMethod: DeleteRecord¶

Value ± µTRUE¶ (Value µTRUE¶ is for Enable the button and µFALSE¶ for Disable the
button)
This will display the button on the Applet Header.

˜ Navigate to µApplet Method Menu Item¶ under selected applet

-Create new record with following detail

 Command ± µDelete Record¶

 Menu Text ±String Override ± µDelete¶

This is done to make Delete Record option available in Menu Item List.
oCompile the Applet.

(. The Button on the applet will be displayed in application and will be active.

I am assuming that we know how to add a button in applet  After adding a new Push Button
to the Applet, the Following properties need to be set for the Button Control.

Configuring in Form Applet:

c# /0 BTTNS_MORE

c# /#0 Link
 & !0 ToggleLayout
10 ToggleLayout

For Any Applet control which needs to appear after the Show More button is clicked, we need
to:

Right click on that control

& Select the ³More´ option

Configuring in List Applet:

c# /0BTTNS_MORE
c# /#0 Link
 & !0 ToggleListRowCount
10 ToggleListRowCount

By default, 7 rows are displayed initially and when the '
 

button is clicked, 20 rows are displayed.

The Number of Rows specified here in the Applet property determines the
Number of rows displayed when a list Applet is first invoked.
The height of the applet increases or decreases based on the Number of rows Specified.

But after Clicking the '
 button, only 20 rows (Standard) are displayed in the list
applet, no matter what we specify in the c# /1  


So, if we specify HTML Number of Rows = 50, initially 50 rows are displayed when the List
Applet is loaded. But when the '
  button is clicked, just 20 rows are returned!

2   is a user property helps to put focus on a particular field.

Ex. $
2  56 7  will put focus on Account if query button is clicked on the
applet

Then it will result in

Similarly we can use below mentioned user properties for applets:-

$
2  5" = Contact will put the focus on contact field when the applet is in Base, Edit
or Edit List mode.

$
2  51
will put set a field or control within an applet that receives focus when
applet is in New Mode.

This will give default focus to New button on an applet being used to add a new record.

If DefaultFocus_New is not added to an applet then first field in the applet gets default focus
when applet is in new mode.
