Example of Creating a Task for Siebel Handheld Application


The following example is a simple task for Siebel Handheld applications that users can execute to take a simple order. This task creates three screens, as follows:

  • Select Product screen
  • Specify Quantity screen
  • Confirm Order screen

To create this task, perform the following steps:

  1. In Siebel Tools, create a normal view named OrderTaskView.
  2. Specify that the view is a task view, that is, set the TaskUI user property, as follows:

    TaskUI="TRUE"

    For more information about this user property, see TaskUI User Property.

  3. Create three applets on the view with the following names:
    • OrderTaskProduct
    • OrderTaskQuantity
    • OrderTaskSummary
  4. For each applet, set the user properties as described in the following table:
    User Property
    OrderTaskProduct
    OrderTaskQuantity
    OrderTaskSummary

    FormUI

    "True"

    "True"

    "True"

    TaskBtnMethod1

    "UndoRecord,GoBack"

    "UndoRecord,GoBack"

    "NewRecord,GotoApplet"

    TaskBtnBitmap1

    "Delete Record"

    "Delete Record"

    "More"

    TaskBtnMethod2

    "NewRecord"

    "GotoApplet"

    "GotoApplet"

    TaskBtnTarget2

    TaskBtnTarget3

    "TASK3"

    "Go Forward"

    "Go Forward"

    "Goto Last"

  5. In Grid Layout Editor, add the required controls to each applet, and arrange the controls appropriately.

NOTE:  No data validation is performed in this simple Task UI.
