Example of Determining Whether the List Is Bounded
The following information lists columns for the AVAILABILITY_STATUS list
of values type. Three of the columns are bounded, but you cannot configure
these columns as multilingual because the NEXT_AVAIL_CD column is not
bounded. If you run the MLOV Converter Utility on this configuration,
then the utility displays an error message similar to columns
are inconsistently bounded
. For more information, see Fixing an Inconsistently Bounded List of Values or an Improperly Set Translation Table Property.
Name | LOV Type | LOV Bounded |

You can modify the LOV Bounded and LOV Type properties of the column in the following situations:
For a predefined column that is not already assigned to a predefined list of values type.
For a predefined column that is already assigned to a predefined list of values type and that has the LOV Bounded property set to FALSE, you can modify the LOV Bounded property to TRUE. Siebel CRM supports this configuration only in the context of enabling an MLOV.
You can configure a custom extension column for use with an MLOV. Do not configure a column for an MLOV unless you are sure that you intend to use that column in your implementation.
