About the Multi-Value Group Applet

A multi-value group applet lists records from the detail business component that the multi-value group references. These records are child records in the parent-child relationship with the record of the master business component. The multi-value group applet does the following:

• Contains list columns that display data from corresponding fields in the detail business component
• Allows the user to add or delete detail records

For more information, see Multi-Value Group, Multi-Value Link, and Multi-Value Group Applet.

Siebel CRM displays the Account Addresses multi-value group applet. This applet lists the detail Address records that Siebel CRM associates with the master account record. This dialog box lists the address information that is associated with each account, including the street address, city, state, and ZIP Code.

A check mark in the Primary column indicates that Siebel CRM displays data from this record in the Address field of the Account Entry Applet. You can view the list of addresses that Siebel CRM associates with the account while the Account Addresses multi-value group applet is open. You can add, query, or delete an address.

Relationships and Objects of a Multi-Value Group Applet

The list column is a child of the list. It includes a Field property that identifies the field in the detail business component that the multi-value group references. Siebel CRM displays this data in the list column. For more information, see How a Business Component Field Identifies the Type of Data.
