The process of implementing multi value fields requires the creation (or reuse) of multi value group (MVG) applets and, in the case of M:M relationships, association list applets. Both applet types are specialized list applets that include extra controls to provide a higher level of usability to the end user.
Because of the fact that the MVG applet wizard provided by Siebel Tools produces only a half-done artifact, it is recommendable to copy an existing MVG applet and modify the copy.
The following procedure describes how to create a new MVG applet for the previous case study example by copying an existing MVG applet:
1. Navigate to the Industry Mvg Applet.
2. Use the Ctrl+B keyboard shortcut to copy the Industry Mvg Applet.
3. Modify the copy as follows:
