Events Triggering Visibility Flowchart

The sequence of events triggered when a user accesses a view, which determines the visibility of an applet, is shown in the following figure.

The evaluation of visibility conditions for views and applets is done dynamically. For example, the Shopping Cart applet in Siebel eSales can be hidden initially, and then shown based on user actions in real time.

Siebel instantiates applet object as defined in the repository is connected to Apple is displayed. Applet is displayed is connected to Associated rules are evaluated.
