Field Tag of the Siebel Basic Mapping File

The field tag describes the field mapping. It describes one field, so the number of field tags must be the same as the number of fields that are mapped.

The field tag includes the following attributes:

  • id. Defines the field identifier. For example, the API name of the field. To assign a control to this field on a form, Siebel CRM Desktop also uses the value of this attribute in the forms_xx.xml file.

  • ver. Used during development. Siebel CRM Desktop does not apply any change to the field description until the value of the ver attribute increases.
