Multi-Value Group Applets


A multi-value group (MVG) applet (shown in Figure 181) is a dialog box that provides the means to display and maintain a set of records of data from another business component associated with the currently displayed business component record. The multi-value group applet is invoked from a control or list column in the originating applet.

Figure 181 shows the Account Addresses multi-value group applet. It is invoked when the user clicks the check mark button to the right of the Address Line 1 text box. This multi-value group applet lists one or more addresses for the account. The record with a check mark in the Primary check box is the one whose data appears in corresponding controls in the originating applet.

While the multi-value group applet is open, the user can view the entire list of team member records for this account, not just the primary one. The user can also add, query, and delete records in this window.

Multi-value group applets are implemented using object types illustrated in Figure 182.

The roles of the object definitions in Figure 183 are summarized in the following list and discussed in greater detail in the subsequent sections. The multi-value group example refers to the Account Address MVG applet illustrated in Figure 181.

Each of the following objects is discussed in greater detail in the following sections.
