Siebel – FINS Teller UI Navigation

Siebel is POWERFUL! Now, need I even say that? And, in all its beauty and glory is the vanilla functionality. I keep coming across something new and novel everyday, and wondering, what percentage of 1% of Siebel do I now understand?!!

Here is another such Business Service that I came across the other day, “FINS Teller UI Navigation”. It has the following methods (my uncalled personal analysis is mentioned herewith):

1) CallBusSvc
This takes in only one Method Argument, “Method Argument”.
After trying to work out as to what this one could possibly mean, I promptly noticed the comments by the kind developer, “A general purpose business service wrapper to be called from Command objects”. After this, I guess we can give it a pass!

2) GotoView
A very powerful method as I see it. It automatically forces a particular view on the User. I see it very useful from security point of view, in redirecting the user to a specific view, in case he dares enter the forbidden territory. Mind you, Siebel’s in-built Access Control mechanism and other security armour makes this seem almost trivial. This could also be a big help when designing help, to automatically navigate the user to a specific Siebel View.

It takes in the following two Input Arguments:
BusObj, and,
ViewName (mandatory)

3) RefreshCurrentApplet
This is a very powerful method provided, and I guess, the most important one. It takes in the following Input Arguments:
Refresh All!!

It will refresh the current context of the Applet. We have already covered this method in detail previously. Click here.
