To create static picklists

  1. In Siebel Tools, choose the File menu, and then the New Object menu item.
  2. In the General tab of the New Object Wizards dialog box, click Pick List, and then click OK.
  3. In the Pick List dialog box, enter values from the following table, and then click Next.

    Field

    Price Range

    Note that you created this field in Adding Columns to the Opportunity Table.

  4. Choose the Static option, and then click Next.
  5. In the Pick List Definition dialog box, choose the Create New Pick List option, and then click Next.
  6. In the next Pick List Definition dialog box, enter Price Range for the name, choose the Create New List Of Values option, and then click Next.
  7. In the List of Values dialog box, enter Price for the name.
  8. In the Enter a Value window of the List of Values dialog box, enter the following value, and then click Enter:
    • 0 - 100,000
  9. Repeat Step 8 until the Current Values window in the List of Values dialog box contains all of the following values:
    • 100,000 - 150,000
    • 150,000 - 200,000
    • 200,000 - 250,000
    • 250,000 - 500,000
    • 500,000 - 750,000
    • 750,000 - 1,000,000
    • More than 1,000,000
  10. Click Next.
  11. In the Pick List Definition dialog box, do the following:
    1. Leave the Search Specification property empty.
    2. Enter a comment in the Comment field that describes the purpose of this picklist.
    3. Make sure the Bounded Pick List option does not contain a check mark.

      A picklist can be bounded or unbounded:

      • Bounded. Restricts the user to only choose a value from the list.
      • Unbounded. Allows the user to choose a value from the list or type a value in the field.
  12. In the Finish dialog box, review your configuration, and then click Finish.

    The wizard does the following:

    • Creates the Pick List object and related objects
    • Adds the list of values to the database
  13. Repeat Step 1 through Step 12 for each of the following picklists:
    Pick List Name
    Values

    Bathrooms

    • 1
    • 2
