Example for Enabling Global Data

This topic is part of Setting Up Global Data.

The following sample task describes how to use the Opportunity Product business component to enable the Product Description field as global data. Make this update in the Opportunity Product project in your Siebel Tools workspace.

To enable global data (example)

  1. In the Object Explorer, navigate to Business Component.

  2. In the Name field, perform a query for Opportunity Product.

  3. In the Object Explorer, navigate to Join and add the following record:

    Field Value

    Table

    S_PROD_INT_LANG

    Alias

    S_PROD_INT_LANG

    Outer Join

    Yes

  4. In the Object Explorer, select Join, then Join Specification, and add the following record:

    Field Value

    Name

    Translate

    Destination Column

    PAR_ROW_ID

    Source Field

    Product Id

  5. In the Object Explorer, select Join, then Join Constraint, and add the following record:

    Field Value

    Name

    Language

    Destination Column

    LANG_ID

    Value

    One of the following values:

    • Language() corresponds to the value of the Language Code parameter.

    • LOVLanguage() is the language currently used for LOVs. It might correspond to the value of the Language Code parameter or to the Preferred Language setting for the current user.

    Note: LOVLanguage() is designed to work with the multilingual outbound communication functionality. Language() does not work with this functionality.
  6. In the Object Explorer, navigate to Field.

  7. In the Name field, perform a query for Product Description.

  8. Change the Join to S_PROD_INT_LANG and the Column mapping to DESC_TEXT.
