How To Create Static Pick Lists and Dynamic Pick Lists (Pick Applets)

Static pick lists allow users to select from predefined options in a dropdown, while dynamic pick lists (applets) populate options dynamically. To create a static pick list, identify the applet and field, create a pick list record specifying the field, then create list of value records for the options. Compiling the business component and pick list makes the changes visible in the client.

How to create Static Pick Lists

and Dynamic Pick Lists(Pick


Applets)
In Siebel, there are two types of Pick Lists. They are ,

1) Static pick list:- Static pick list is a drop down list object which will
show list of values to user for a field in applet and prompt user to
chose one value from the list.
Two types of Static pick lists are available. At Pick List object level,
there is a property Bounded check box which will tel you whether it is
a Bounded or Unbounded pick List.
Bounded:- This type of Static pick Lists will not allow user to
enter any free text in field value. User has to select any one
value from the available drop down list.
Unbounded:- Opposite to above. i.e User can enter any free
text, if he wanted.

Follow below steps to configure a Static pick list.

1. From help button, identify which applet and on which field you
wanted to configure pick list.
Example here is: Distance List Applet for fields: Source
Location and Destination Location

2. Go to Help button on Menu ribbon and identify which applet. Here


example applet is: Distance List Applet
3. Go to Tools, query for that applet and those fields on which we
wanted to configure drop downs.

Click on List and look for the fields as shown below. Here, I have
selected the Source Location and Destination Location.

4. Click on the BC of the applet. Here the BC is: Distance


Fields selected are the ones on which we need to put pick list
property with the pick list which we create in next steps.
Here, I am specifying pick list and pick map(child object of Field) for
the BC fields.
5. Go to Pick List object in tools and create a new record. Here I have
created pick list as Distance Pick List.
note: Type Field is : Type & Type Value: <LOCATION_NAMES>
6. Goto SitemapAdminstration-DataLOV Explorer and create a new
record with the Type value which you mentioned at the time of
creation of Pick List object.
Here I am creating anew record with Type as LOCATION_NAMES.
7. Now, switch to List of Values View and start creating records with
Source & Destination values.

8. Compile the BC & Pick List and Open the client to see the changes.
