Creating a Multi-Value Group Applet

You use the MVG Applet Wizard to create a multi-value group applet. This wizard helps you create the objects that Siebel CRM requires for a multi-value group applet. For more information see Multi-Value Group, Multi-Value Link, and Multi-Value Group Applet and How Siebel CRM Creates a Multi-Value Group.

To create a multi-value group applet

1. In Siebel Tools, click the File menu, and then click New Object.
2. In the New Object Wizards dialog box, click the Applets tab, click MVG Applet, and then click OK.
3. In the General dialog box, enter values using information from the following table, and then click Next.

   Property	Description
   Project	Choose the project to associate with this applet. Siebel Tools only includes locked projects in the list.
   Applet Name	Apply the format for naming a multi-value group applet. For more information, see Guidelines for Naming an Applet.
   Business Component	Choose the business component that this applet references.
   Display Title	Enter the name that Siebel CRM displays in the Siebel client. For more information, see Guidelines for Creating an Applet Title.

   For more information, see Including a New Button in a Multi-Value Group Applet.

5. In the Web Layout - Fields dialog box, choose the fields that Siebel CRM must display in the applet, and then click Next.

   Siebel Tools displays the fields that are defined for the business component that you chose in Step 3. It displays these fields in the Available Fields window.

6. In the Web Layout - Fields dialog box, choose the controls in the Available Controls window that Siebel CRM must display in the applet, and then click Next.

   The wizard adds the controls that the Selected Controls window includes, by default. If you must exclude a control, then move it to the Available Controls window. For more information, see Configuring How Siebel Tools Enters Data Into the Selected Controls Window.

7. Review the information displayed in the Finish dialog box, and then click Finish.

   The MVG Applet Wizard creates the applet and the supporting object definitions. For more information about shuttle applets, see Siebel Release Notes on My Oracle Support.
