Mixed View Technique
If an applet references a single business component, and if the boundary of the business component is not intuitive or obvious to the user, then you can create a task that displays a logical set of data in a view. You can configure Siebel CRM to combine data from multiple business components into a single task view step. A task can include more than one applet, so the user does not need to worry about boundaries between business components.
Example of the Mixed View Technique
A view displays a list of items in an order and asks if the user must add a new item. Siebel CRM uses a single applet to display the list of ordered items according to the Order Item business component. A second applet includes the following items:
-
A question that Siebel CRM displays as an applet message.
-
The answer to the question, stored as a field in a transient business component and displayed as a radio button. For more information, see Overview of Transient Data.
