Disallow creating new records in child applet based on certain condition on parent business component

Example:
Parent Business Component : Service Request
Child Business Component : Action
Applet : Activity List Applet

Goto Applet-> Activity List Applet-> Applet User Prop-> Create new user propery as below
Name : CanInvokeMethod: NewRecord
Value : [Calc Disable New] (Calcualted field should be in child business component - Action)

Goto Business Component-> Action-> Create Calcualted field as below
Name: Calc Disable New
Calcualted : TRUE
Force Active: TRUE
Immediate Post Changes: TRUE

Calculate Value: IIf(ParentBCName () = "Service Request",IIf(ParentFieldValue ("Sub-Status") = LookupValue("SR_SUB_STATUS", "Follow Up"), "N", "Y"),"Y")
(For Example, Field is taken with the value "Follow Up", you can choose any condition)

Creating SearchSpecs in Siebel

Not too sure if you ever faced it, but at one time I found it really difficult to build siebel searchspecs. I had to copy already built searchspecs and manipulate it to cater to my needs.. :). However recently I figured out it's not that difficult to build these specs. In general if you are not using a process property (in a workflow) or a function (like LookupValue) searchspec is pretty straight forward. The below is an example. '[Status]='"In Progress"' (In progress within double quotes and the whole statement within single quotes, the vice versa is also okay, but make sure you use one particular quotes within the statement) If you need two fields in the searchspec and it will look like below: '[Status]="In Progress" and [Type]="Administrative"' and so on and so forth. Simple right. Now comes the little difficult part, when you have a process property or a function, e.g. '[Status]="In Progress" and [Type]="...

Siebel 8.1 weird WF validation error

We got the below error message while validating a workflow in Siebel 8.1 Validation failed for the workflow process 'XYZ' for the branch 'Connector 33' The 'WF Branch Criteria Value' - field such as LO_.. or HI_.. for the respective data type is null or empty. Solution: Run the sql below with the source as workflow row id, you will see all the branch conditions in your workflow. Pick the one which has the same name as the error message, isolate the wf step (you can modify this sql to get that) and then delete and re-add the condition step. SELECT WFBRANCRIT . ROW_ID , WFBRANCRIT . NAME , WFBRANCRIT . BRANCH_ID FROM SIEBEL . S_WFR_PROC WF , SIEBEL . S_WFR_STP WFSTEP , SIEBEL . S_WFR_STP_BRNCH WFSTPBRANCH , SIEBEL . S_WFR_PROC_FLOW WFSTEPCON , SIEBEL . S_WFR_COND_CRIT WFBRANCRIT WHERE WF . ROW_ID = WFSTEP . PROCESS_ID (+) AND WFSTEP . ROW_ID = WFSTPBRANCH . STEP_ID (+) AND WFSTPBRANCH . ROW_ID = WFSTEPCON . FOR_BRNCH_ID (+) AND WFSTPBRANCH...
