Customizing Time Scales That Siebel Open UI Displays in the Timescale Pane

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

  1. 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.

  2. 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

  3. (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;
