How This Book Describes Objects

For brevity, this book describes how an object, such as a user property, does something. For example, this book might state the following:

"The Copy Contact user property copies contacts."

In strict technical terms, the Copy Contact user property only includes information that some other Siebel CRM object uses to copy contacts.

For brevity, to describe how Siebel CRM uses the value that a property contains, in some instances this book describes only the property name. For example, assume Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains. This property is a property of a tree node object. This book only states the following: "Siebel CRM displays the Display Name property of the tree node."

In reality, Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains.
