Displaying RAL in the Constraints View

You can revise the Constraints list to add a field that displays the Rule Assembly Language (RAL) translation of your template rules. This is a useful way to learn how to use RAL to write configuration rules.

You must use Oracle's Web Tools to add the field to the Constraints record, and then recompile the siebel.srf file. You must be familiar with creating and modifying applets in Oracle's Web Tools before performing this procedure.

To revise the Constraints view, perform the following tasks:

1. Locate the Constraints View Applet
2. Modify the Constraints View Applet

Locate the Constraints View Applet

This task selects a target browser and queries for the Cfg SWE Rule Manager Applet.

To locate the Constraints View applet

1. In Oracle's Web Tools, open a workspace and then navigate to Object Explorer.

   For more information on using workspace dashboards, see Using Siebel Tools.

2. Select View, Toolbars, Configuration Context.
3. In the Target Browser Group drop-down menu, select Target Browser Config.
4. In Available browser groups, select ALL and transfer it to "Selected browser groups for layout editing."
5. Click OK.
6. Click Applet in the Object Explorer.
7. In the Applets list, query for the Cfg SWE Rule Manager Applet.

Modify the Constraints View Applet

This task adds the Rule Spec field to the Cfg SWE Rule Manager Applet.

To modify the Constraints View applet

1. With the SWE Rule Manager Applet highlighted, select Tools, Lock Project.
2. Right click the highlighted applet record and select Edit Web Layout.
3. In the window displaying the layout, right-click and select Preview from the pop-up menu.
4. Click the Template icon and select the Applet List (Base/EditList) template. It is the default.
5. In the Mode drop-down menu, select 3: Edit List.
6. In the Controls/Columns window, click Rule Spec, and move it to the [field] beside the End date in the applet display.
7. Click Save.
8. Click OK to save your changes.
9. Deliver the workspace.
