Making buttons/Controls invisible

Sometimes greatest treasures are those which are invisible to eyes. Hiding controls at runtime could be fun and at times very useful.This may help in avoiding creation of multiple applets. Recently i came across a scenario where in one view user was allowed to perform some operation on button click while in other views he should not see buttons. One approach is to have applet Base mode defined in the other view w/o buttons but it fails when mulitple toggles are defined in the applet and applet defined in view is of mode type "Edit". Other option is to make controls invisible. Following code could be useful for making buttons hidden in Form Applet dynamically based on the View type. Again Browser Script is our friend.

function Applet_Load()
{
var sView = theApplication().GetProfileAttr("ActiveViewName");
switch(sView)
{
case "Activity Attachment View":
var ctrlSubmit = this.FindActiveXControl("Submit"); // This is the name of control
ctrlBack.style.visibility = "hidden";//Setting visibility property to hidden
break;
}
}

Siebel give capabilities that our own Mr India will be proud of!!!

FINS Data Transfer Utilities

The best thing while working on siebel is you are never short of options. Recently we had requirement of updating a Service request from contact. Finally we did that using "EAI Siebel Adapter" business service. However during that time i came across another business service "FINS Data Transfer Utilities" popularly known as DTU business service. As i was not having prior knowledge of it going by the rule of not learning swimming lessons while drowning i decided not to go for it. Lately i have tried to explore this service and trust me it can do wonders. Here is a sample example update of Service Request from contact. We need to follow below steps in order to understand strength of this business service. 1 - Navigate to Site Map. Go to Administration - Application -> Data Map Administration tab. Create a new Record with following options: Name: Service Request Test Source Business Object: Contact Destination Business Object: Service Request Here the source business

Profile Attributes and Open UI

Yes, Profile Attributes! As the ever attentive, up-to-date Siebel CRM expert that you are when you read this, you know that in Siebel Open UI (since version 15), it is no longer allowed/supported to  set  Profile Attributes from browser-side script. But  getting  them is not a problem, since the  GetProfileAttr  function works perfectly fine. Recently I found a few vanilla Profile Attributes that came quite handy in my work in Open UI JavaScript: Navigation Type : stores the navigation type such as "NAVIGATION_TAB" ActiveViewName : does what it says on the tin IsOpenUI : returns "1" when the application runs in Open UI Is SUI Theme : when "TRUE", the application theme is Synergy (aka SUI) Position:  returns the currently active position Primary Responsibility Name : guess what this one is… Profile Image : returns the URL of the user's profile image Org.Name : returns the name of the user's organization Here's a sample line of
