Validating DataTo meet the validation requirements for your business, you can use Siebel Visual Basic or Siebel eScript to create a custom code that uses validation rules before Siebel CRM records or deletes a record. You can use data validation to access the following types of data:
Modifying and Controlling DataSiebel Visual Basic and Siebel eScript allow you to modify and control data, such as update, insert, or delete a record. For example, you can control the value of one field according to the value of another field:
You can use an object interface method to manipulate data to notify a Siebel programming language of an error and provide it information. This capability allows you to configure the Siebel application to handle the error and take appropriate action. Manipulating data in a Siebel programming language conforms to the same visibility rules that a predefined Siebel application uses. For example, assume the visibility rules that exist in a predefined Siebel application result in a business object that Siebel CRM can read but not edit. In this situation, a configuration that you create through a Siebel programming language can also read but not edit this same object. You cannot use a Siebel programming language to circumvent the visibility rules or the security constraints that a predefined Siebel application enforces. Customizing Behavior for User Interface ElementsTo add a user interface element to an applet, you can use the Applet Layout Editor in Siebel Tools. To associate a behavior with this element, you can use a Siebel programming language. For example, you can add a button on an applet that opens another application, such as Microsoft Excel. |
