Constraint Pick List

Scenario: in Account List Applet, Field in Region Field for Eg should control City Field:
If Region selected is North only the North Cities should be displayed in City Dropdown.
Solution Design:
1. First we need to find out whether we can find any columns in S_ORG_EXT to
accommodate Region and City, if not use two ATTRIB columns from
S_ORG_EXT_X with Physical type VarChar since both fields store text data.
2. Create 2 picklists one for Region field and another for City Field
3. Add Region and City Fields in Accounts BC with help of Join S_ORG_EXT_X.
4. Corresponding to Region Field under Picklist Column add the newly created
picklist name and pickmap the same with picklist BC field Value.
5. Corresponding to City Field under Picklist Column add the newly created picklist
name and pickmap the same with picklist BC field Value and also the Region
field with ParentValue of the Picklist BC and also to constrain we need to
check Constraint Column.
6. In Account List Applet add the Region and City List Columns and Edit Web
Layout.
7. Set Run Time Property for Region and City List columns to TRUE and Compile
8. In Siebel Application administration go to List of Values add the Region and
City LOV_TYPE and set the relationship in Lov Explorer.

Apply, Activate is not necessary here bcoz, we have not created a column
but just used the existing column and set comments to help other
configurators, saying dont use this ATTRIB for other purpose, as this is
reserved.
