Task Step Context

A task step context defines the context for a task step. To do this, it sets up a search specification for a business component that the business object references. You can use a task step context only if the Type property of the task step is Siebel Operation or Task View.

The following table describes properties that Siebel CRM uses with a task step context.

Property Description

Expression Business Component (O)

Specifies the name of the business component that the right operand of the expression references. For example, consider the following expression:

[Account Id] = [Id]

where:

  • = is the operator
