Managing the Custom-Defined Relationship Types LOV

If you are logged in as the Siebel administrator, you can create and maintain a list of predefined custom-defined relationship types. A default list of values is provided with the application. These relationship types appear in the drop-down LOV for the Type field found on the Relationship Hierarchy views, in the Party Relationship applet.

To add a custom-defined relationship type

1. Navigate to Site Map > Administration - Data > List of Values.
2. In the List of Values list, create a New Query where Type equals PARTY_RELATIONSHIP_TYPE.

   At least six records will be returned, showing the existing list of values for custom-defined relationship type.

3. In the List of Values list, add a record and complete the necessary fields.

   Some fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Active	Determines whether the value is displayed to the end user in the Relationship drop-down list.
   Display Value	Value as displayed in the Relationship drop-down list.
   Language Independent Code	Code used internally by the Siebel application.
   Language Name	Language used for the list of values Display Value field.
   Order	Numerical order in which a value is displayed within the Relationship drop-down list.
   Parent LIC	Language-independent code of a parent list of values. It is used in hierarchical list of values.
   Translate	When checked, indicates that the list of values is part of a multilingual list of values (MLOV).
   Type	The type of list of values. For this procedure, select PARTY_RELATIONSHIP_TYPE.

NOTE:  You cannot delete LOV table entries. Use the Active check box to deactivate an LOV entry and thereby remove it from the Relationship drop-down list.
