Adding Group Expressions

You must use the sequence that this topic describes when you add a group expression. For an example that uses this sequence, see Configuring Custom Manifests. For more information about group expressions and subexpressions, see Example of a Completed Manifest Administration.

To add group expressions

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Application screen, and then the Manifest Administration view.

  2. In the UI Objects list, locate the UI object that you must modify.

  3. In the Object Expression list, add the subexpressions.

  4. Add the group expression. Leave the Group and Operator fields empty.

  5. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to arrange the subexpressions in ascending numeric order according to the value in the Level field. Make sure the Object Expression list displays all subexpressions after the group expression.

  6. Use the Indent and Outdent buttons so that Siebel Open UI displays the subexpressions after and indented from the group expression. The tree in the Inactive Flag field displays this indentation.

  7. In the UI Objects list, query the Name property for the name of the UI object that you are configuring. This query refreshes the Manifest Administration screen so that you can edit the Group Name and Operator fields of the group expression.

  8. In the Object Expressions list, expand the tree that Siebel Open UI displays in the Inactive Flag field.

  9. Set the values for the Group Name field and the Operator field of the group expression.
