Guidelines for Creating a Custom One-to-One Extension Table

If you create a custom one-to-one extension table, then use the following guidelines:

  • If you must configure a table whose type is Extension or Extension (Siebel), then you must extend from the base table of the table, not from the extension table. The Base Table property of the extension table describes the base table to extend. For example, the S_CONTACT table is an extension table of the S_PARTY table. The S_CONTACT table is an Extension (Siebel) table, so you cannot use it as the parent table for an extension table. Instead, you can extend the S_PARTY table and use an implicit join to display the data from the extension table.

  • A custom one-to-one extension table does not require new docking rules because the Siebel schema implicitly routes the data that this table contains according to the docking rules that the parent table specifies.
