Reverse Join:

The ?Source Field? in the join spec holds the foreign key where the? Destination Column? provides the primary key. The pickmaps on the joined field provide the mapping between these when a value from the pick BC is picked from the pick applet. As a result, the primary key value (specified in ?Destination Column?) is copied into the column on which the source field is based on.

Indirect Link:

The parent business component of a multi-value link (MVL) is usually the same as the business component in which the MVL is defined. However, by using the Source Field property of the [Multi Value Link] object, it is also possible to create an MVL whose parent business component is related to the current business component indirectly via a join or via another MVL.

Employee facing applications are those which are used by internal employees of the organization, these are High Interactivity application.

Whereas Customer facing applications are those which are used and accessed by outside users and are on Standard Interactivity.

Static pick list draws the values from pick list data managed by administrator. The values displayed in static pick list don't change during run time. It can be bounded or unbounded. The values for all static pick lists are stored in S_LST_OF_VAL table.

The dynamic pick list draws values from a business component with records edited by users. It is used to update joined fields.

High Interactivity mode is designed to resemble a Windows client. It supports fewer browsers than Standard Interactivity mode, but it includes a set of features that make data entry easier for users. For example, page refreshes do not occur as often as they do in Standard Interactivity mode. Users can create new records in a list, save the data, and continue browsing without a page refresh having to occur.

In Application Administration screen, go to LOV Explorer and create the LOV type first. Then on come List of Values in Application Administration and associate values for that LOV type.

SetSearchSpec sets the search specification for a particular field, whereas SetSearchExpr allows for the setting of an entire search expression on the business component.

Persistency, Exception points and write to file, Write a error handling workflow.

Static Toggle allows users to toggle between applets by selecting the name of the applet from the Show drop-down list.

Dynamic Toggle Automatically toggles between applets based on the value of a field in a parent applet.

Primary ID Field property specifies the name of the field in the master business component that holds the row ID values pointing to primary records in the detail business component.

Having lot of differences between siebel 7.7 and 7.5.2. the primary difference among them is " Symbolic strings are available in Siebel 7.7 and not available in 7.5.2". hence the future scope for up-gradation like things are high in Siebel 7.7.

The Pre Default Value property of a field (Predefautls Value in the Object List Editor) automatically assigns a value to that field for a new record. The user can modify the field if it is displayed and not set to Read Only.

The Post Default Value property of a field assigns a value to a field before the record is written to the database, if one has not been entered by the user.

Multivalue field has the child values from a chind BC for the parent record configured through MVL. Single value field will be either from the base table or joined table. The Difference between Single Value Field (SVF) and Multi Value Field(MVF).

SVF- a field in BC which references a column in a table.

MVF- a field in parent BC which references a field in child BC Field-Identifies and defines a field in a business component. All fields making up a business component record contain entries from both Single Value Field and Multi Value Field object types.
