Configuring a Hierarchical List Applet to Use External Data

This topic describes how to configure a hierarchical list applet to use external data. To develop this example, do the following tasks:

  1. Creating the Virtual Business Component

  2. Creating the Business Service for the Hierarchical List Applet

  3. Implementing the Customization

You can configure a hierarchical list applet to get external data from a virtual business component. A hierarchical list applet does not require special configuration on a business component other than a properly set Hierarchy Parent Field property. More configuration is required for a virtual business component.
