Set Grid Begin End Date Method

The SetGridBeginEndDate method sets the business component to Calendar mode and sets the beginning and ending dates for the grid.

Siebel CRM requires this method in a script that manipulates the business component in Calendar mode, such as manipulating an instances of a recurring activity.

Caution: To avoid a performance problem, it is recommended that you set the date interval so that Siebel CRM does not return a large number of records. For example, no more than 1000 records. You typically set this interval to a month or a week.

You can configure Siebel CRM to call this method only from a server script or browser script that resides on an applet, business component, or business service.

The following table describes the arguments that you can use with the SetGridBeginEndDate method. Each argument uses the following format:

mm/dd/yyyy

Argument	Description
beginDate	Specifies the beginning date for the grid in the time zone that the object manager uses. Siebel CRM interprets the beginning time for this date as midnight at the beginning of the day.
endDate	Specifies the ending date for the grid. Siebel CRM interprets the ending time for this date as midnight at the end of the day.

You can use the ClearGridBeginEndDate Method method to modify the mode that the business component uses when it modifies the mode from Calendar mode to regular mode.
