Creating a Pop-Up Wizard

You can create a set of pop-up applets that work like a wizard. The procedure you use to do this is similar to the procedure you use to define a dialog box that Siebel CRM opens from an applet. For more information, see Creating a Pop-Up Applet That Siebel CRM Opens from an Applet.

The parent applet must be in Edit mode.

To create a pop-up wizard

1. In Siebel Tools, click Applet in the Object Explorer.
2. In the Applets list, locate the pop-up applet you must modify.
3. Expand the Applet tree, and then click Applet Web Template.
4. In the Applet Web Templates list, add multiple templates:
   1. Add one template for each page in your wizard.

      Set the Type property to Edit for each template.

   2. Assign a different value to the Sequence property for each template.

      Use the Sequence property to define the order that Siebel CRM uses to display the templates when the user clicks through the wizard.

5. Add controls to the applet that allow the user to navigate between pages.

   For more information, see Adding Navigation Controls to a Pop-Up Wizard.

6. On the last template in the sequence, create a control named Finish that closes the applet, and then updates the parent applet.
7. Compile and test your modifications.

   For more information, see Using Siebel Tools.

Adding Navigation Controls to a Pop-Up Wizard

You can add navigation controls that allow the user to navigate between the pages of a pop-up wizard.

To add navigation controls to a pop-up wizard

1. In Siebel Tools, click Applet in the Object Explorer, and then locate the pop-up applet you modified in Step 2.
2. In the Object Explorer, expand the Applets tree, and then click Control.
3. In the Controls list, add a new control for the Previous button using values from the following table.

   Property	Value
   Name	Previous

   The Previous button saves the modifications that the user makes, and then navigates the user back to the page whose sequence number is one less than the current page.

5. In the Control User Props list, add a new record using values from the following table.

6. Repeat Step 3 for the Next button using values from the following table.

   Property	Value
   Name	Next
   Caption	Next
   Method Invoked	PostChanges

   The Next button saves the modifications that the user makes, and then navigates the user to the page whose sequence number is one greater than the current page.
