Example Process of Creating Display Templates for Categories

Display templates control how catalog categories are displayed to the end user. A number of templates are available by default, as described in Creating Categories. You can also create custom display templates.

NOTE:  This topic does not apply if you are using Siebel Open UI sales catalogs.

You create and edit display templates in Siebel Tools, and then add them to the Siebel eSales application using your employee application's administration screens.

The example shown in this process uses a display template named Product New, which uses a view named Product Catalog Category New Detail View (eSales).

For more information on creating Siebel views and applets, and on dynamic drilldown behavior, see Using Siebel Tools.

To create a new display template, perform the following tasks:

• Creating a Category Detail View
• Creating Drilldown Objects for the View
• Editing the Web Layout of the New Display Template
• Adding the New Display Template and View to the Application

NOTE:  You must also add the view to the appropriate responsibilities, for example Siebel Administrator and Web Registered User.
