Creating Views using the Object List Editor

You can use the Object List Editor to manually create a new view object. However, it is recommended that you use the New View Wizard because the Wizard prompts you for all necessary information and configures dependent objects for you.

To define a view in the Object List Editor

1. From the Object Explorer, select View.

   The Object List Editor opens.

2. Choose Edit > New Record to add a new view object definition.
3. Set the following properties for the new view record:
   • Name. (Required.) The name of the view. All references to views are done through its name.
   • Business Object. (Required.) The name of the business object used by the view. This determines the relationship between business components on which member applets are based.

     All the sector properties must have a value specified (except explorer view).

   • Screen Menu. If TRUE, the view should be included in the Site Map.
   • Title. Text string used as the window title.
4. In the Object List Editor, select the record, and then right-click and choose Edit Web Layout.

   The Select Template dialog box appears.

5. Select a view template and click Next.

   The Applet dialog box appears.

6. Select the applets you want to appear on the view and then click Next.
7. Review your selections and then click Finish.
