Managing static bindings in the application-provided screens

Static binding is the object that lists all the source and target static binding namespaces and paths that are used on the screen. You can create or delete static bindings.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Sterling Store Engagement. The Home page opens.
  2. From the application header, click the Development Tools icon Customize a screen or panel, and select Customize from the list.

    Alternatively, you can select Customize from Outline. The Select screen to Extend window opens. The list of screens present in the current screen is displayed. For example, if you open the Order Search screen, the tree displays Order Search, Order List Screen, and others present in this screen.

    From the tree, select the screen that you want to customize, and click Extend Screen.
    Note:
    • If you cannot customize the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.
    • You cannot use the customize option to customize screens that contain iframes, such as the Print PDF Container screen.
    • If multiple instances of the same screen are found, by default, the first instance of the screen is selected for customization.
  3. Select the screen to which you want to add static bindings.
    Note:
    • After you select a particular screen to add extensions, you cannot select any other screen. To select another screen, click Close.
    • If you cannot add static bindings for the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.

  5. Click Static Bindings. The application-provided static bindings are displayed.
    Note: You cannot edit the application-provided static bindings.
