Creating Field Mappings for Presentations

To create a field mapping, create a record for the mapping, and then map the fields.

Note: For Siebel Tools objects to be accessible in the Siebel application, the Siebel repository must be updated in the appropriate database.

To create a field mapping for presentations

1. Navigate to the Administration - Document screen, then the Presentation Field Mappings view.

2. In the Business Objects list, create a new record, and complete the necessary fields.

   Some fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Mapping Name	Type a name for the mapping.
   Business Object	Select the business object that contains fields in the presentation. For example, to create an opportunity presentation, select the Opportunity business object.
   Description	Type a description of the mapping.

3. Navigate to the Business Components list by completing the following steps:

   1. In the Business Objects explorer, click the arrow icon next to the business object name folder.

   2. Click the arrow icon next to the Business Components folder under the business object name folder.

4. In the Business Components list, create a new record, and complete the necessary fields.

   Some fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Business Component	Select the business component. The business component must be related to the business object.
   Search Specification	Type the search specification. The search specification limits the records returned for the business component. If you do not designate a search specification, all records for the business component are returned.

   Note: You can associate more than one business component mapping with an object. For example, to create an opportunity presentation, you select the Opportunity business component. You can also select the TAS Account business component to create mappings for views under the Opportunity TAS view.
