Configuring Siebel Business Applications > Configuring Applets > Customizing an Applet in Standard Interactivity > Allowing the User to Choose Multiple Rows in Standard InteractivityA multiselect list applet is a type of applet that allows the user to choose multiple records for a transaction in the following ways:
The multiselect list applet is specific to Siebel Business Applications that use standard interactivity. In applications that use high interactivity, multirow selection is available in all list applets where Siebel CRM uses the swe:list tag, except for pick applets. In a pick applet, the user can use the Control and Shift keys to choose multiple rows, as in a typical Windows application. For more information, see About Standard Interactivity and High Interactivity. By default, multirecord selection is not enabled for list applets. For more information, see About List Applet Templates. To allow the user to choose multiple rows in standard interactivity
Modify the List Applet Template to Support All List AppletsYou can use the swe:select-row tag of the list applet template to create a list applet template that you can use with list applets that support multirecord selection and with list applets that do not support multirecord selection. To modify the list applet template to support all list applets
Comparison of the Multiselect List Applet to the PositionOnRow ControlThe Siebel Web Engine calls methods that act on the multiple records that the user chooses in a list applet. Check boxes on each row allow the user to choose rows. This is different from using the PositionOnRow control to choose the current record. You can use the PositionOnRow control and allow the user to choose multiple rows on the same list applet. When the user initially navigates to a list applet, Siebel CRM automatically chooses the record on which the business component is positioned. The user can use the check box to deselect this record. Unlike PositionOnRow, if the user uses the check boxes to choose multiple rows, then there is no round trip to the Siebel Server. Siebel CRM only marks the chosen records on the business component when it calls a method on the applet. The user can use the Next and Previous controls to choose records from different working sets or records that Siebel CRM displays across multiple pages. |
