Business Component Fields That a Task Can Modify

A task cannot modify the following types of business component fields:

  • Fields that use a multivalue group

  • Calculated fields

A task can do the following for a field that Siebel CRM defines as read-only at the business component level:

  • Use another field or a user property to read it.

  • Cannot modify it.

Updating a Field that Uses a Multivalue Group

To update a field that uses a multivalue group, you can define a business component for this field and then create a link to the related child and parent business components. For example, the Account Team field uses a multivalue group so you cannot use the Account business component to update it. You can create a business component named Account Team and then create a link between the two business components and use it to add the child (Account Team) business component to the Account business object. You can then use a Siebel operation step to update the Account Team business component. For more information, see Configuring Siebel Business Applications.
