Siebel CRM Desktop for IBM Notes Administration Guide > Customizing Picklists >

Process of Creating Custom Static Picklists


To create a custom static picklist, you do the following:

  1. Modifying Siebel CRM Objects to Support Static Picklists
  2. Adding Fields to the Metadata to Support Static Picklists
  3. Adding Fields to the Basic Mapping to Support Static Picklists
  4. Modifying the Basic Mapping to Store Values for Static Picklists
  5. Modifying the Form to Support Static Picklists
  6. Uploading and Testing Your Static Picklist

The example in this topic adds a static picklist to the Opportunity form in Siebel CRM Desktop. Assume that a field named JVD Simple in the Opportunity business component already exists in Siebel CRM. It references a picklist named JVD Simple Picklist. Table 16 describes the properties of the list of values in Siebel CRM that this picklist references. Although this topic uses a static picklist as an example, you can use this topic to create a static picklist or a multi-value static picklist.
