Siebel field level properties
• What is the use of Force Active?
Setting the Force Active flag to true means that the relevant data will always be considered "Active"
and so will always be retrieved from the database
• How does Force Active Property reduce performance?
When Force Active is TRUE, the field is queried each time the business component is instantiated,
even when the field is not exposed on the user interface. Force Active should only be set to TRUE
when there is a need to script a field in the active business component and the field is not exposed
on the active applet
• When is Force Case property used?
When we want to save the values at database in UPPER, LOWER, or FIRSTUPPER irrespective of what
case user have entered
• When is Immediate Post Changes property used?
When we want to refresh the data in the field as soon as focus move off the field. Field data is posted
to the server when the focus moves off of the field and then the data is refreshed, Causes an
immediate roundtrip to the server.
• What is No Copy user Property?
Specifies that when a record is copied, the field's value is not copied into the newly created record
• What is Link Specification user Property?
Specifies that the field's value is passed as a default value to a field in the child business component.
• What is Validation user Property?
The Property accepts an Expression, expression ensure data correctness when data is entered. Also,
the validation is evaluated only for the field for which it is added.

check, Numeric Checks etc..
Why we need to go for scripting for putting validations ???
Hint – It has to do something with the complexity and Length
