Assignment Attribute
Siebel Object Types > Assignment Attribute Defines an attribute that can be referenced in assignment criteria records. An Assignment Attribute object definition specifies a logical attribute that can be chosen from a picklist for defining comparisons; it does not directly specify a particular database column or combination of columns. Column mapping is accomplished through the child assignment attribute column object definitions, one for each assignment object that uses the parent assignment attribute. An assignment attribute also specifies the picklist to be used in the Values applet in the Assignment Criteria view when the administrator is populating an attribute in a value record. Properties

|
|
Bounded (O) |
A TRUE or FALSE value. |
TRUE = Picklist is bounded; that is, the administrator can select a value only from the picklist. FALSE = The administrator can enter a value that does not appear in the picklist. |
Data Type (R) |
The data type for the assignment attribute. |
Valid values are Varchar and Number. |
Name (R) |
The name of the assignment attribute. |
Must be unique within the repository. |
Order By LOV Type (O) |
Not used. |

The name of the field to select from the picklist. |
Valid values are Created, Created By, Id, Updated, and Updated By. |

The name of the picklist that supplies the selection values for populating any list column in the Values applet (in the Assignment Criteria view) that is based on this assignment attribute. |
|
Translate Pick Field (O) |
Determines if the Language Independent Code is stored in the database or the display value for Assignment Criteria. |
Valid values are Created, Created By, Id, Updated, and Updated By. |
Use Range (O) |
A TRUE or FALSE value. |
TRUE = A pair of list columns, indicating a range, is to appear for assignment criteria attributes based on this assignment attribute. FALSE = A single list column is to appear for assignment criteria attributes based on this assignment attribute. Example: The Revenue assignment attribute, which has a TRUE value for Use Range, displays two list columns, Revenue Low and Revenue High. The administrator would enter 50000 in the former and 100000 in the latter in a value record to indicate the range $50,000 through $100,000. |
Check In Before Use
The projects used for creating new assignment attributes must be checked back into the server before use. It is not sufficient to compile the object definitions and distribute the resulting SRF file. See Also
