What is the result of setting the “Outer Join Flag” property to TRUE?
Returns all records from the main table of the BC even if there is no joined record. Set it to FALSE if the FK relationship is mandatory. If the FK will always be there, then you don’t need the outer join.
What does the join object specify?
The FK to PK relationship. Allows a BC to represent data from a foreign table. Used on the many side of a many to one relationship. Requires data from the joined table to return at most one row.

A Siebel constant,User-defined,Reference to the Name of an existing object definition
What is the Siebel UI Organization Structure?
An application is a collection of screens. Each screen is a collection of views pertaining to a functional area; Views map to the same BO and presents a subset of its data: is a collection of one or more applets. Each applet maps to one BC.
What is the User Interface Objects layer?
Is the visual representation of the underlying BOs and BCs. Provides means to customize the screen display. Defines the application, screens, views, applets and reports (including UI layout and navigation, all UI controls)
What is a BO?
A major area of business functionality. A collection of BC’s which are logically related.One BC in the collection serves as the master BC (the master BC has the same name as the BO itself). Same BC can be used in different sets of relationships.
What is a BC?
Associates columns from one/more tables in the Data Object layer into a single entity. Maps to a main table. Has Fields, most of which map to a Column in a Table. Enables relationships with other BCs using PK/FK relationships built-in to the Data Model.
What is the Business Object Layer?
Business Object Definitions built on Data Object Definitions and/or other Business Object Definitions. Provides the interface to retrieve and manipulate data from the underlying SQL tables. Major object types: Business Component and Business Object
