How this Book Describes Objects

This book describes how an object, such as a user property, does something. For example:

• The Copy Contact user property copies contacts.

  In reality, the Copy Contact user property only includes information that some other Siebel CRM component uses to copy contacts.

To describe how Siebel CRM uses the value that a property contains, this book typically only describes the property name. For example, assume Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains. This is a property of a tree node object. This book only states the following:

• Siebel CRM displays the Display Name property of the tree node.

  In reality, Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains.
