Configuring Pop-Up Wizards

If you want to have a wizard-style set of pop-up applets, the procedure is similar to configuring a dialog box invoked from an applet control. See Configuring Pop-Up Applets Launched from Applets.

NOTE:  The parent applet must be in Edit mode.

To configure a pop-up wizard

1. In Siebel Tools, select the pop-up applet, expand the Applet object, and then select the Applet Web Template object.
2. Add multiple templates of type Edit in Siebel Tools to the Applet Web Template.
3. Assign a different value to the Sequence property of each of the templates, in the order you want them to appear.
4. To navigate between pages, add two controls:
   1. Previous button:
      • Set the Method Invoked property to PostChanges.
      • Add a Control User Prop child object called Sequence with a value of -1.

        This posts the changes that the user has made, and then goes back to the page whose sequence number is one less than the current one.

   2. Next button:
      • Set the Method Invoked property to PostChanges.
      • Add a Control User Prop child object called Sequence with a value of 1.

        This posts the changes that the user has made, and then goes to the page whose sequence number is one greater than the current one.

5. On the last template, create a control called Finish that closes the applet, and then updates the parent applet.
