Precedence

Precedence is the order in which Siebel applications evaluate the various operators within a single expression. Operators with higher precedence are evaluated before operators with lower precedence. In addition, operators with equal precedence are evaluated left to right.

The levels of precedence for the various Siebel application operators are listed below. Lower level numbers indicate higher precedence.

The order of precedence within an expression can be altered by using parentheses. Siebel applications evaluate the expression within the parentheses first, before evaluating the expression outside.
