Overview of Filtering Options

Before starting to configure business object filters for Siebel Mobile, note that the following filtering options are available:

  • Business Object Filters. You can configure different business object filters for different views in Siebel Mobile as shown in Example Business Object Filters. Business object filters have the following limitations:

    • Dependent business component records are not downloaded as part of business object filters.

    • Business object filters do not apply to pop-up applets.

  • Business Object Filter Chaining. To ensure that all dependent business component records are downloaded for a business object, you can configure business object filters with business object chaining as shown in Example Business Object Filters With Chained Data Extraction.

  • Filters for Pop-up Applets. To restrict the data downloaded in a pop-up applet, you can use the PopupSearch filter condition to filter the data extraction as shown in the example in Configuring Business Component Filters for Pop-up Applets. If a filter is specified for a business component at both the business component and business object level, then you can use the IncludeInBOIterations keyword in your query to specify to apply the business object filter, otherwise neither filter condition will be applied. For more information, see the example in About Filter Application During Chained Data Extraction.
