Using the Siebel Get Deleted Objects activity

Use the Get Deleted Objects activity to poll for deleted Siebel Business Objects, Business Components, or Siebel Integration Objects from the Siebel server.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have:
  • Installed the necessary vendor software JAR files.
  • The valid connection details to connect to the Siebel server.
  • Configured the EventStore business objects and triggers to generate events. For more information, see Prerequisites for starter activities in Siebel

About this task

Use this task to poll for events that are generated because of a delete operation performed on the Siebel Business Application server.

Procedure

  1. In an active orchestration, open the Activities tab and expand the Siebel folder contents.
  2. Drag the Get Deleted Objects activity icon onto the orchestration. The Siebel Get Deleted Objects Checklist is displayed.
  3. In the Checklist, click Summary.
  4. Review the contents of the Activity Name field, and make the required changes.
  5. In the Checklist, click Pick Endpoint.
  6. Click Browse and use the Project Explorer dialog box to select the relevant Siebel endpoint.
  7. You can create the endpoint by clicking New and enter the required connection details. Click OK to save and use the endpoint for this configuration.
    Note: For more information, see Creating or editing a Siebel endpoint.
  8. To make any required changes to the selected endpoint configuration, click Edit to access the options in a separate window. Any changes you make globally affects all uses of the endpoint in active orchestrations.
  9. In the Checklist, click Configure.
  10. Enter the repository name in the Repository Name text box. Repository name is populated with a default value, which represents the Siebel Repository. Specify the repository name if it is not same as the default value. All the metadata needed for discovering the objects are retrieved from this repository.
  11. Specify the event store name which is configured in the Siebel server. The activity polls this event store for new events.
  12. Select one of the following objects for integration.

    To work with Business Object/Business Component:

    1. Select the Object Type as Business Object / Business Component.
    2. Click Browse to display the list of Business Objects.
    3. Use the Business Object Filter to filter the business objects during selection.
    4. Optional: Click Refresh to update the current object list from the Siebel server.
    5. Select a Business Object from the business object list and click Next.
    6. The list of business components for the selected business object is displayed. Select a business component and click Finish to generate schemas for the map input and map output.
    7. If the selected business component is a child of a parent business component, then both the parent and the child business components are generated with a relation between them.

    To work with Integration Object:

    1. Select the Object Type as Integration Object.
    2. Click Browse to display the list of integration objects.
    3. Use Integration Object Filter to filter the integration objects during selection.
    4. Optional: Click Refresh to update the object list from the Siebel server.
    5. Select an integration object and click Finish to generate schemas for the map output.
  13. In the Checklist, click Retry. Review the default settings and make the required changes. Similarly, configure the Delivery Rules panel. For more information, see Specifying Retry and Delivery Options for Siebel Activities
  14. The activity polls the event store at configured interval for delete events and fetches the actual object for that event. This object is sent to the orchestration. After processing, the event is marked as archived in the event store.
  15. Select the Map Outputs in the Checklist. The XML Schema generated to hold the response of the activity is displayed as nodes under the response output parameter in the From Activity panel.
  16. Create a map between the output parameters and orchestration variables.
