Creating an Output Argument for a Task Step

An output argument allows you to configure Siebel CRM to store the value that results from processing one of the following step types:

• Business service step

• Siebel operation step

• Task view step

• End step

Siebel CRM stores this value in a task property. It can then pass this value to another object, such as the input argument of a subsequent task step.

To create an output argument on a task step

1. Open the Task Editor (see Opening the Task Editor) for the task you want to modify.

2. In the Task Editor, select the step where you want to create an output argument.

3. In the Multi Value Property Window (MVPW) pane, click the Output Arguments tab.

4. Create a new record:

   • In the Property Name field, select a property name. This is the name of the task property that stores the value of the output argument.

   • In the Type field, select a type.

5. Define remaining fields for the output argument according to the type you defined in the previous step.
