Drill down in siebel form applet

Requirement: Create a drill down in Service Request Detail Applet(Form Applet)

This is a tweak and not a siebel provided functionality 

Steps to do(explained by an example):

1. In Service Request Detail Applet(applet of your requirement) create new Drill down object

Property Value

Name: GotoSR
Hyperlink Field: SR Number
View: Service Request Detail View

2. Create new Control object on that Applet

Property Value

Name: SR Drill down
Caption – String Override: Go To SR
HTML Type: Link
Field: SR Number

Method Invoke Drill Down
3. Remove the label for the SR Number field in the applet web layout.
4. Place the new configured control adjacent to the SR number field.
4. Compile and test

Notes

• The hyperlink will show the value entered in the control Caption and not the field value
• If there is no record returned by query, hyperlink is still active and drilling down on it results in error message "This operation is not allowed when there are no records displayed".

Refresh Siebel Applet not Buscomp - "RefreshBusComp" Alternative

Need: User wants to update the data being displayed on UI after performing some validation and updates via a script on the underlying BC.   Solution: A vanilla Business Service “FINS Teller UI Navigation” can be used to refresh an Applet after updating the underlying data, without breaking the current query.       One of the most commonly used approach is to invoke the "RefreshRecord" method on the Business Component. However, this does not promise to work on all Business Components.        Another alternative is to call the BS method "RefreshCurrentApplet" on the BS "FINS Teller UI Navigation".   Syntax: TheApplication().GetService("FINS Teller UI Navigation").InvokeMethod ("RefreshCurrentApplet", TheApplication(). NewPropertySet(), TheApplication().NewPropertySet()); Eg: BusComp_WriteRecord() { Code Goes Here //TheApplication().InvokeMethod(“RefreshBusComp”);    --Commented TheApplic

BCHasRows - Validation with no scripts

Need:   To do validation without using siebel scripts.  Solutions:         BCHasRows : Validation Without Scripting Scenario:            To check/search in child Bus comp field values for some validation  without scripting.  For Example:            When the Specified Account has any "Active" child Activity, the Activity flag should be true Implementation without scripting:           Create a  calculated field Name: Check Activity  Calculated = Y Calc Expression: BCHasRows("Account", "Action", '[Account Id] ="' + [Id] +'" AND  [Type] = "Active"',"All")         This returns Y, if any child activity found. Create a User property “On Field Update Set” to set the Activity Flag ; Value : “Check Activity”, “Activity Flag”                            Syntax:  BCHasRows ( BO , BC , search_expr, visibility)

Deploying Integration Object at Runtime (Siebel)

Image
Feature: Starting with  Siebel  8.1, Integration Objects can be deployed at runtime just like workflows to the runtime database. Modifications to the IO can be deployed to the server without having to recompile the changes to SRF, shutting down the server and then moving the changes. Steps to follow: 1.         Open a Dedicated connection to the server database(Works on local db too) 2.         Go to the IO in the Object Manager 3.         Select the IO that needs to be modified and deploy 4.         Right Click on the IO and select “Deploy to Runtime Database” 5.         Log into  Siebel  Web Client 6.         Go to Site Map ->Administration – Web Services >Deploy Integration Object 7.         The IO will now be available 8.         In order to un-deploy the IO, go to  Siebel  Tools ->Integration Objects > Right Click on the IO and select “UnDeploy” 9.         Clear the cache every time before deploying/un-deploying( Administration – Web
