Overview

content directly from a browser.

In this tutorial you create an aggregate view that embeds external web content.

You perform the following tasks to embed external web content into a Siebel view:

 Add a calculated field to a business component that references a symbolic URL

 Create an applet that exposes the new business component field and set its retrieval type

to symbolic URL. This value for the retrieval type indicates that data for the underlying

field comes from an external web server rather than the Siebel database.

 Create a view that contains the applet and then add the view to a screen

 Administer the view in the Siebel client

 Administer the symbolic URL in the client to associate the symbolic URL with a target

 The as-delivered sample database (version 8.1 or above) must be installed
