This topic describes how to customize a resource scheduler. It includes the following topics:
This topic includes example values that customize the resource scheduler that Siebel Hospitality uses. You can use a different set of values to customize a different Siebel application.
Figure 7-1 includes an example of a resource scheduler, which is a type of bar chart that includes a schedule that allows the user to schedule a resource. In this example, the Function Space Diary is a resource scheduler that allows the user to schedule a room in a hotel. The room is the resource. You can use a different resource scheduler to meet the deployment requirements of your Siebel application.
The resource scheduler includes the following items:
Date navigation bar. Allows the user to modify the date that Siebel Open UI displays in the schedule.
Time scale selector. Includes the following time scales:
D/H. Days and hours.
D/DP. Days and day parts.
W/D. Weeks and days.
W/DP. Weeks, days, and day parts.
M/D. Months and days.
M/DW. Months, days of the week, and day parts.
A day part is a time period that occurs during the day. For example, morning, afternoon, evening, and night are examples of day parts. You can customize the time period that defines a day part. For example, the morning day part comes predefined as 8:00 AM to Noon. You can modify it to another time period, such as 9:00 AM to Noon. For information about customizing the day part, see Step 5.
Filter pane. Allows the user to filter data that Siebel Open UI displays in the schedule.
Resource pane. Displays a list of resources. A resource is something that a resource scheduler can use to support an event. A room is an example of a resource. An event is something that occurs in a resource. A meeting is an example of an event.
Timescale pane. Displays a time scale that includes date and time information. It includes the following items:
The major axis is a dimension that Siebel Open UI displays in the time scale. In this example, the major axis displays the current day, which is Monday, July 22.
The minor axis is a dimension that Siebel Open UI displays in the time scale. In this example, the minor axis displays the time of day, such as 10:00 AM.
The third axis is a dimension that Siebel Open UI displays in the time scale. It displays this axis as a third dimension in addition to the major axis and the minor axis. You can use the third axis to display Siebel CRM information according to your deployment requirements. In this example, the third axis displays the total number of rooms that are available for the current day. For example, 300/380 indicates that 300 rooms out of a total of 380 rooms are available for the current day.
Schedule pane. Displays the schedule as a timeline. Includes events that are scheduled for each resource.
Legend. Displays a legend that describes the meaning of each color that Siebel Open UI displays in the Schedule pane.
An abbreviation is an optional shortened version of a value that you can specify in the Value property of an object that a resource scheduler uses. ST is an example of an abbreviation. It indicates the start time of a resource scheduler. Siebel Open UI uses these abbreviations to reduce the amount of information that it sends from the Siebel Server to the client. This book includes the abbreviations that you can use for Siebel Hospitality. Unless noted elsewhere, these abbreviations come predefined with Siebel Open UI, and you can use only the abbreviations that this book describes. For help with using abbreviations, see "Getting Help from Oracle".
This topic describes how to customize a resource scheduler.
To customize a resource scheduler
Configure the applet that Siebel Open UI uses to display the resource scheduler:
For more information, see Using Siebel Tools.
In the Object Explorer, click Applet.
This example includes the minimum set of objects that you must add. To view predefined applets that Siebel Open UI uses for a resource scheduler, you can query the name property for TNT Function Bookings Gantt Applet or, to simplify creating your resource scheduler, you can make a copy of one of these applets, and then modify the copy.
In the Applets list, add a new applet, or copy one of the applets mentioned in Step b.
Set the following property for the applet that you added in Step c.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Class | CSSSWEFrameGantt |
In the Object Explorer, expand the Applet tree, and then click Applet User Prop.
In the Applet User Props list, add the following applet user properties. Each value in the Value property supports this example. You can use values that your deployment requires. You must include all of these user properties.

| Date Padding for TimeScale LIC | time_scale_identifier:number_of_pages | Specify the number of pages that Siebel Open UI uses in the cache for the time scale. For more information, see "Customizing the Cache That Siebel Open UI Uses for Time Scales". |
| DateBar Navigation TS | time_scale_identifier:small_date_change, big_date_change | Specify the date navigation buttons. For more information, see "Customizing the Date Navigation Buttons". |
| Duration for TimeScale LIC | time_scale_identifier:number_of_days
For example: 1:7;2:1;4:1;32:36;64:31;128:7;256:35;512:1;1024:1 |
Specify the number of days that Siebel Open UI sends to the cache for each time scale. For example, the following value specifies to send seven days of data to the cache for the Week/Day time scale:
1:7 You can use a semicolon to specify days for more than one time scale. Siebel Open UI uses a number to identify each time scale. For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales". |
| No. Of Panes | 3 | This applet user property specifies the number of panes that Siebel Open UI displays. A resource scheduler always displays the Resource pane, Time Scale pane, and the Scheduler pane, so you must not modify this applet user property. |
| Custom Control Name | s_Diary | Specify the name of the custom control. |
| Custom Control | "Legend Control Name,s_Legend" | Specify the tag that Siebel Open UI uses to render each custom control. Siebel Open UI uses this information to parse the input property set when it renders a custom control. Use the following format for each value:
control_name,tag_name where:
For example, the following value specifies to use the s_Legend tag for the Legend Control Name control: Legend Control Name,s_Legend You can use Custom Control 1 and Custom Control 2 to specify more controls, as required. |
| Custom Control 1 | "DateBar Control Name,s_DateBar" | |
| Custom Control 2 | "GanttChart,s_Diary" |
Configure system preferences and user preferences.
In the Applet User Props list, add the following applet user properties. Each value in the Value property supports this example. You can use values that your deployment requires. You must include all of these user properties.
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Support System Preferences | Y | If the value is N or empty, then Siebel Open UI does not support system preference usage with a resource scheduler. |
| Support User Preferences | Y | |
| System_Pref Field number
For example, System_Pref Field 1, System_Pref Field 2, and so on. |
"GntAXCtrl:Time Scale", "TST", "TNT_SHM_GNTAX_TIME_SCALE" | Specify the default values that Siebel Open UI uses in a resource scheduler. You can use the following abbreviations:
If a field is a LOV field, then you must specify the LOV name so that the code gets the language-dependent value. For more information about the abbreviations that the Value property contains, see "Using Abbreviations When Customizing the Resource Scheduler". |
| System_Pref_Prefix | GntAXCtrl: | Specify the prefix that Siebel Open UI uses for every system preference that it uses with a resource scheduler. You must use this prefix. Siebel Open UI only queries system preferences that include this prefix. It does this query in the System Preferences business component. |
| User_Pref Field number
For example, User_Pref Field 1, User_Pref Field 2, and so on. |
"Display Toggle - Query", "Display Toggle" | Specify the user preference name. Siebel Open UI sends an abbreviation of this user preference to the client. |
| User_Pref_Prefix | Diary | Specify the prefix that Siebel Open UI uses for every user preference that it uses with a resource scheduler. You must use this prefix. Siebel Open UI queries only the user preferences that include this prefix. It does this query in the User Preferences business component. |
You can use these system preferences and user preferences to configure Siebel Open UI to do decision making in your custom JavaScript code that resides on the client. For example, you can set a user preference for the default time scale to Month and Day, and then use this default in your custom JavaScript code to set the default time scale. User preferences take precedence over system preferences. If a user preference exists, then Siebel Open UI uses it instead of the corresponding system preference.
Specify the methods that Siebel Open UI uses with the Siebel Server.
In the Applet User Props list, add the following applet user properties. These applet user properties specify the methods that Siebel Open UI uses with the Siebel Server. You must add them so that Siebel Open UI can call the methods that reside on the Siebel Server. You must not modify these methods. You must also add a CanInvokeMethod applet user property for every method that your custom JavaScript calls on the Siebel Server. Make sure you set the Value property for each of these applet user properties to True.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| CanInvokeMethod: DoInvokeDrilldown | A resource scheduler supports drilldowns through the Resource, Schedule, and Timescale panes. If the user clicks a label in one of these panes, then Siebel Open UI calls the DoInvokeDrilldown method. |
| CanInvokeMethod: DoOperation | Calls the DoOperation method. Siebel Open UI calls this method for various events, such as drag and drop, extend, shrink, create task, and so on. |
| CanInvokeMethod: FilterDisplayOptions | Specifies how Siebel Open UI displays bookings when the user clicks Set to set criteria in the Filter pane. You must configure Siebel Open UI to call the FilterDisplayOptions method, typically through the Set button. This configuration enables Siebel Open UI to filter events according to the attributes that it defines for each control. |
| CanInvokeMethod: FilterGantt | Specifies how Siebel Open UI displays bookings when the user sets a criteria in the Filter pane. |
| CanInvokeMethod: InitPopup | Calls the popup dialog box for some operations, such as drag and drop, create task, and so. You cannot customize this behavior. |
| CanInvokeMethod: InvokeOperation | Specifies the method that Siebel Open UI calls when the user clicks a button in the popup applet. You cannot customize this behavior. This popup applet is the TNT Gantt Popup Applet that Siebel Open UI configures for the applet user property. |
| CanInvokeMethod: ReSetFilterGantt | Resets the resource filter options to default values. Siebel Open UI displays these options in the Filter pane. |
| CanInvokeMethod: RefreshGantt | Calls the Refreshgantt method. Siebel Open UI uses this method to refresh a resource scheduler. |
| CanInvokeMethod: ResetDisplayOptions | Resets the display filter options to default values. Siebel Open UI displays these options in the Filter pane. |
| CanInvokeMethod: SaveControlValues | Stores the user preference values that the Filter pane fields contain. You cannot customize this behavior. |
Configure optional applet user properties.
You can use applet user properties to implement the optional customizations that your resource scheduler configuration requires. For more information about how to do this customization, see the following topics:
Add controls:
In the Object Explorer, click Control.
In the Controls list, add the following controls.
| Name | Caption - String Reference |
|---|---|
| 1 | SBL_TNT_TS_WEEK_DAY |

| 64 | SBL_TNT_TS_MONTH_DAY |
| 128 | SBL_TNT_TS_WEEKDAY_DAYPART |
| 256 | SBL_TNT_TS_MONTH_DAY_OF_WEEK |
Note the following:
A resource scheduler requires each of these controls for the time scale.
You must add a control for each time scale.
Set the Name property of each control to the time_scale_identifier, such as 1, 2, 4, and so on. Siebel Open UI uses a number to identify each time scale, such as 128 or 256. It does not use values 8, 16, or 32 for time scales with Siebel Hospitality. It might use different values for a different Siebel application. For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales".
Set the HTML Type property of each control to MiniButton.
Set the Method Invoked property of each control to RefreshGantt.
In the Controls list, add the following controls.
| Name | HTML Type | Class | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| GanttChart | CustomControl | CSSSWEFrameGantt | Specifies the main resource scheduler control. |

You must add a new application user property for each business service that your customization calls in the client. In this example, you specify the Gantt UI Service business service. You must increment the Name for each application user property that you add. For example, ClientBusinessService1, ClientBusinessService2, and so on.
Compile your modifications.
Test your modifications:
Log in to the client.
Navigate to the resource scheduler, and then test your modifications.
This topic describes how to customize the cache that Siebel Open UI uses for time scales.
To customize the cache that Siebel Open UI uses for time scales
Specify the number of pages to use in the cache for a time scale.
Use the following value for the Date Padding for TimeScale LIC applet user property:
time_scale_identifier:number_of_pages
where:
time_scale_identifier specifies the time scale.
number_of_pages specifies the number of pages that Siebel Open UI uses for the previous operation and for the next operation. It uses these pages when it prepares the page cache for the time scale that the time_scale_identifier specifies.
The following example specifies the Week/Day time scale LIC, and it specifies to use 2 pages for the previous operation, and 2 pages for the next operation:
1:2
Siebel Open UI uses a number to identify each time scale. It uses the number 1 to identify the Week/Day time scale. For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales".
Siebel Open UI always includes a default page, so it uses the following calculation to determine the total cache page count:
previous pages + default page + next pages
So, the cache size for the 1:2 example is 5:
2 + 1 + 2 = 5
For more examples:
1:1. Use three pages (1+1+1).
1:0. Use one pages (0+1+0).
1:2. Use five pages (2+1+2).
(Optional) Add more than one time scale.
Use a semicolon to separate each time scale. For example:
1:1;2:1;4:1;32:1;64:1;128:1;256:1;512:1;1024:1
When you specify the DateBar Navigation TS applet user property, you specify the time period that Siebel Open UI uses to reset the current date when the user clicks one of the following buttons:
Left arrow. Displays the previous date, small date change.
Right arrow. Displays the next date, small date change.
Double left arrow. Displays the previous date, large date change.
Double right arrow. Displays the next date, large date change.
Siebel Open UI displays these buttons to the left and to the right of the date that it displays in the Date Navigation bar.
To customize the date navigation buttons
Specify the DateBar Navigation TS applet user property.
Use the following format:
time_scale_identifier:small_date_change, big_date_change
where:
time_scale_identifier identifies the time scale. Siebel Open UI uses a number to identify each time scale. For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales".
small_date_change specifies the number of hours, days, weeks, or months that Siebel Open UI uses to modify the current date if the user clicks the left arrow or the right arrow.
big_date_change specifies the number of hours, days, weeks, or months that Siebel Open UI uses to modify the current date if the user clicks the double left arrow or the double right arrow.
(Optional) Add more than one time scale.
Use a semicolon to separate each time scale. For example:
1:7,30;4:1,7;2:1,7;64:30,365;128:7,30;256:1,35;
The following value customizes the date navigation buttons:
1:7,30
where:
1. Specifies the time_scale_identifier. For example, 1 specifies the Week/Day time scale.
7. Specifies the number of days. For example, if the current date is August 15, 2013, and if the user clicks:
The left arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays August 8, 2013 as the current date.
The right arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays August 22, 2013 as the current date.
30. Specifies the number of days for the record set. For example, if the current date is August 15, 2013, and if the user clicks:
The double left arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays July 15, 2013 as the current date.
The double right arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays September 15, 2013 as the current date.
For another example:
4:1,7
where:
4. Specifies the time_scale_identifier. For example, 4 specifies the Day/Hour time scale.
1. Specifies the number of days. For example, if the current date is August 15, 2013, and if the user clicks:
The left arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays August 14, 2013 as the current date.
The right arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays August 16, 2013 as the current date.
7. Specifies the number of days for the record set. For example, if the current date is August 15, 2013, and if the user clicks:
The double left arrow button, then Siebel Open UI displays August 8, 2013 as the current date.
The double right arrow, then Siebel Open UI displays August 22, 2013 as the current date.
This topic describes how to determine the number that Siebel Open UI uses to identify a time scale.
To determine the number that Siebel Open UI uses to identify time scales
Log in to a Siebel client with administrative privileges.
Navigate to the Administration - Data screen, and then the List of Values view.
Query the Type field for the following value:
TNT_SHM_GNTAX_TIME_SCALE
In the Display Value field, locate the time scale that you must modify.
In the Language-Independent Code field, make a note of the value.
Siebel Open UI uses the number that it displays in the Language-Independent Code field to identify the time scale that it displays in the Display Value field.
You can add a custom filter that determines how Siebel Open UI filters resources and determines the label colors that it uses for events. You add these controls in the Filter pane. For example, you can add a filter control named Type to filter events according to the value that the Type field contains.
To customize the Filter pane in resource schedulers
In the Object List Editor, choose the applet that you modified in Step 1.
In the Object List Editor, expand the Applet tree, and then click Control.
(Optional) Configure the resource scheduler to filter resources:
In the Controls list, choose a control that meets your deployment requirements that Siebel Open UI can use to filter resources.
If no existing controls meet your deployment requirements, then you can add a control.
In the Object List Editor, expand the Control tree, and then click Control User Prop.
In the Control User Props list, add the following control user property.
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Field Name | Max Room Area Sq Ft | Specify to use the control as part of the resources filter. The HTML Type property of this control must be set to Text so that Siebel Open UI displays a text box that allows the user to enter a value. Siebel Open UI then uses the filter resources according to the value that the user enters. For example, if the user enters a value of 100, then Siebel Open UI sends the following value to the FilterGantt business service method. It sends this value as an input argument:
Max Room Area Sq Ft = "100" |
(Optional) Configure the resource scheduler to filter resources and events:
In the Controls list, choose a control that meets your deployment requirements that Siebel Open UI can use to filter resources and events.
If no existing controls meet your deployment requirements, then you can add a control.
In the Object List Editor, expand the Control tree, and then click Control User Prop.
In the Control User Props list, add the following control user property.
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Display Field Name | Optioned | Specify to use the control as part of the resources filter. The HTML Type property of this control must be set to CheckBox so that Siebel Open UI displays a checkbox that allows the user to display Optioned events. Siebel Open UI then filters resources and events according to the choice that the user makes. In this example, if the user adds a check mark, then Siebel Open UI sends the following value to the DisplayOptions business service method. It sends this value as an input argument:
Optioned = "Y" |
Use the Web Layout Editor to add the control that you modified in Step 3 or Step 4 to the Filter pane in the web template.
You can do this work as part of step 4e .

This topic describes how to specify the Pane 1 Date Drilldown applet user property. You specify the time scales that Siebel Open UI displays when the user clicks a date in the Timescale pane, such as Monday, July 22.
To customize time scales that Siebel Open UI displays in the Timescale pane
Determine the number that Siebel Open UI uses to identify the time scale that you must modify.
For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales".
Add the value that you determined in Step 1 to the value of the Pane 1 Date Drilldown applet user property. Use the following format:
source:destination
where:
source identifies the time scale that the user clicks. Siebel Open UI uses a number to identify each time scale. For more information, see "Determining the Number That Siebel Open UI Uses to Identify Time Scales".
destination identifies the time scale that the resource scheduler displays when the user clicks the source.
For example, the following value configures Siebel Open UI to display the Day/Day-Part time scale when the user clicks the Week/Day time scale:
1:2
(Optional) Allow the user to navigate between time scales.
You can use a semicolon to separate each time scale. For example:
1:2;2:256;4:256;64:2;128:2;256:2;

This topic describes how to customize the controls that Siebel Open UI uses to display information about participant availability in a resource scheduler. You use custom cascading style sheet files to do some of this modification. For more information about how to organize these files, see "Organizing Files That You Customize".
To customize participant availability in resource schedulers
Allow or disallow the user to resize the panes that Siebel Open UI uses to display information about participant availability:
Log in to Siebel Tools.
In the Object Explorer, click Applet.
In the Applets list, query the Name property for Calendar GanttChart OUI Applet.
In the Object Explorer, expand the Applet tree, and then click Applet User Prop.
In the Applet User Props list, modify the following applet user property.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Disable Resize for Ganttchart | Specify to allow the user to resize an activity or a booking. Use one of the following values:
Note: This user property applies to all schedulers. |
Modify the color that Siebel Open UI uses to display events:
In the Object Explorer, click Business Service.
In the Business Services list, query the Name property for Calendar Gantt Color Service.
In the Object Explorer, expand the Business Service tree, and then click Business Service User Prop.
In the Business Service User Props list, modify the following business service user property.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Event Status Mapping Color | For information about how to set this business service user property, see "Setting the Color for Events". |
Compile your modifications.
Modify the icons that Siebel Open UI uses to display information about participant availability. To do this, you can use one the following siebui-calgantt-icon CSS classes in your custom CSS file.
| Description | Example |
|---|---|
| To modify the icon that Siebel Open UI uses for employees, use the siebui-calgantt-icon-employee CSS class. |
.siebui-calgantt-icon-employee {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
float: left;
margin-top: 2px;
background: url(../images/employees_icon.gif) no-repeat center center;
}
|
| To modify the icon that Siebel Open UI uses for contacts, use the siebui-calgantt-icon-contact CSS class. |
.siebui-calgantt-icon-contactcall {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
float: left;
margin-top: 2px;
background: url(../images/contact_call.jpg) no-repeat center center;
}
|
| To modify the icon that Siebel Open UI uses for resources, use the calgantt-icon-resource CSS class. |
.siebui-calgantt-icon-resource {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
float: left;
margin-top: 2px;
background: url(../images/resoure-items.gif) no-repeat center center;
}
|
Modify how Siebel Open UI displays information about the current record.
You can use the .siebui-currentRecord CSS class in one of your custom CSS files. For example:
.siebui-currentRecord {
border-left: 3px solid green;
border-right: 3px solid red;
z-index: 1000;
}
This example modifies the class only for the current event. To change the default color for all events, modify the user property to the following:
Pane 2 Event Default Color
Verify your work:
Log into the client.
On the Home page, click My Calendar.
On the application-level menu, click Edit, and then click New Record.
Siebel Open UI displays the eCalendar Detail View that contains the scheduling control.
Verify that the resource scheduler includes the modifications that you configured in Step 2 through Step 5.
You can use the Event Status Mapping Color business service user property to set the color for each event type. It uses the following syntax:
"status_abbreviation,event_type:color_value"
where:
status_abbreviation is defined in the Pane 2 Status LIC Field applet user property. Siebel Open UI uses this applet user property to display the scheduling control. In this example, you set status_abbreviation to GS (Gantt Status). You can use any abbreviation. It is recommended that you use a short abbreviation, such as GS, to reduce the amount of information that Siebel Open UI must communicate.
event_type specifies the type of event. For example, it can specify one of the following values:
Accepted
Declined
Not Responded
color_value specifies a hexadecimal value that identifies the color that the cascading style sheet uses to display an event. For example, a color_value of #FF0000 specifies to display an event as red.
You can use the following syntax to specify multiple color values:
"status_abbreviation,event_type:color_value;status_abbreviation,event_type:color_value;"
where:
; (semi-colon) separates each color value.
For example, the following code sets the color for each event type:
"GS,Accepted:#d3ffd7;Declined:#6600CC;Not Responded:#000000"
where:
Accepted:#d3ffd7 sets the RGB color for Accepted events to light green (red at 82.75%, green at 100%, and blue at 84.31%).
Declined:#6600CC sets the RGB color for Declined events to purple (red at 40%, green at 0%, and blue at 80%).
Not Responded:#000000 sets the RGB color for Not Responded events to black (red at 0%, green at 0%, and blue at 0%).
|
Note: If you are setting the color for events in a Participant Availability scheduling control, the Business Service that requires modification is the Calendar Gantt Color Service. The value can be found in thePane 2 Event Color Service Name user property in the applet. |
For more information about how to use a hexidecimal number to represent a color, see the page about color codes at the ColorCodeHex website at http://www.colorcodehex.com.
You can use the following code instead of modifying the Calendar Gantt Color Service business service to set event colors:
siebui-calgantt-event_type
For example, you can add the following class to one of your custom CSS files to set the border color for Not Responded events to yellow:
.siebui-calgantt-NotResponded {
border: 1px solid #FFFF00;
}
