After reading the title of this post, you might have got some idea what the scenario I am going to talk about today. This is the scenario where I have two buttons exposed on the UI and both having the same Method Invoked = "ShowPopup". Here below is the snapshot: 1. Create SR : this button is being used for displaying “Create

Siebel provides various different OOB ways to display a Popup applet, no matter if it a list applet or form applet. Here below is the list of all possible ways: 1. ShowPopup This is a straight forward OOB way to display a popup applet which is mostly used to display a popup when button is clicked. a.

After reading my earlier post on sending emails in HTML format, two readers Rishikesh and VP asked, if it is possible sending email using dynamic email template and with the attachments. After reading the complete requirement, I thought its worth a separate post. So, here is the solution - 1. Lets assume we have an email template based on Quote business component as per below screen shot:

I was working on a requirement where in one of the step in the Workflow using "Outbound Communications Manager" business service for sending an email using method "SendMessage". And depending upon the value of some process property, I need to add some more texts at the end of email body. The problem came in when I tried adding extra text using expression, the carriage return was not working

This is a very simple requirement that I am talking about today, where on a button click you are required to do a GetFieldValue() of a active BC field, which is NOT exposed on the UI and doesn't have the Force Active property checked. If you try to do that, system prompts an error sayng: A script failed to get the value for field because the field was not active.(SBL-EXL-00119)

Runtime Events (RTE) and Data Validation Manager (DVM) are the two highly used features whenever there is a requirement for imposing business rules in the process. Every another project has their own business rules to implement and Siebel developers use RTE and DVM as their first choice (mostly). Problem comes in when you are done with the development and now its time to move the RTE and DVM (

I am back with a very basic requirement which might looks very easy, but the solution might not be that easy to implement. Requirement: I have a Service Request form applet where I have following fields exposed on the UI: Severity - LOV field values: a) 1-Critical b) 2-High c) 3-Medium d) 4-Low Commit Date - Date Time field Depending upon the Severity, being set by the user, system

Siebel provides various ways of achieving the same solution, but you need to do the analysis beforehand to pick the right one. Recently I got one basic requirement that: As soon as the Opportunity Sales Stage gets "Approved", all the Activities (Child of Opportunity) status should automatically set to "Approved". Any Siebel Geek can offer multiple ways to achieve this solution: 1. Write a small

I am pretty sure you will find this post very interesting, if you ever get a requirement to send a email in HTML format and email should have the details of the child records(dynamic data) as well.XSLT (XSL Transformation) can do wonders for this kind of requirement where the basic idea is to get data in XML hierarchy from Siebel (which you can easily do via EAI Siebel Adapter and convert it into

Today I am going to discuss one interesting requirement where you are required to make all the Child Business components read only as soon as the Parent business component becomes read-only.Actual scenario goes like this: As per the business requirement, we need to have the Opportunity business component read-only when Sales Stage is Approved. For this simple requirement we configure the BC User

In continuation of the previous post, I found another good way to achieve the requirement of sending email in HTML format and moreover you are required to replace the field values dynamically from business component. So the extra information you need to provide to Outbound Communication Manager is the ROW_ID of the record in context.Suppose, here below is the Email Template need to send in HTML

If you get a requirement to send an email from Siebel, the very simple way is to make use of OOB business service, i.e "Outbound Communications Manager" with the method "SendMessage". Following input parameters would be enough for this purpose: a) MsgToList b) MsgSubject c) MsgBody d) CommProfile Here below is the working example for the same: var inp = TheApplication().NewPropertySet();

One of the interesting requirements I heard recently to put a check on the business component to accept only those records which has the unique value in specified fields. Actual requirement goes this way: “Opportunity Product” is the child business component of “Opportunity” Business Component. System should not allow adding the Opportunity Product record with the same “Product” associated with

In the last post, we talked about creating an Outbound Web Service in Siebel where we receives the WSDL file from other system and consume it into Siebel Tools to generate necessary artifacts. Today I found a very nice tutorial for creating an Inbound Web Service in Siebel. In this post you will find how to publish the WSDL from Siebel and let the outside world do data manipulation inside

Today, lets talk about how we can invoke an Outbound Web Service from Siebel. In the last post we learned how to test the WSDL using SOAPUI and I will use the same WSDL today (CurrencyConverter.wsdl) as the sample wsdl in this post.1. Import the WSDL into Siebel Tools.Create New Object. File Menu -> New Object -> EAI -> Web ServiceSelect the WSDL file pathBusiness Service will get created with

No matter if you are working in Siebel or not, if you are going to implement any Outbound Web Service, the first thing you wanna check if the WSDL file received from the 3rd party is working or not before you actually consume it and start the development.Same is the case with Siebel Tools, you require to consume it in Siebel tools which will result in creation of Web Service (which is nothing but

Our team was facing one performance issue in our application in which navigation to a view was taking hell lot of time. As every Siebel developer does, we also spooled the query which is running in the background and found the culprit query for the issue. SQL query seems to be very simple:SELECT T1.CONFLICT_ID, T1.LAST_UPD, T1.CREATED, T1.LAST_UPD_BY,T1.CREATED_BY, T1.MODIFICATION_NUM, T1.ROW_ID,
