WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications

Selecting business objects or services for use with the adapter

Browse the metadata information of the EIS and select the Siebel business objects or Siebel business services to use for inbound processing. The type of Siebel entities that are listed are based on the available selections for the Siebel metadata type.

Before you begin

Connection properties must be set for the enterprise service discovery wizard.

About this task

To select the Siebel business objects or services to use with the adapter, use the following procedure.

How to perform this task

  1. From the Find and Discover Enterprise Services window, click Edit Query.
  2. Enter a filter value and click OK.

    The enterprise service discovery wizard fetches either the Siebel business objects or Siebel business services based on the value filled in against the filter property. The items shown depend on which Siebel metadata type was selected. For example, if you enter a value, such as EAI, all objects that start with EAI are retrieved by the enterprise service discovery wizard. To narrow the search parameters, you can enter the first few characters in the field and click OK. If there is no value provided and you run the query, all objects, for either business services or business objects are retrieved and listed in a tree structure, where each tree node represents an object.

  3. From the Find and Discover Enterprise Services window, click Run Query.

    The query results are displayed in a tree structure.

  4. From the search results, under the objects discovered by the query, expand the business service node, select the business service method that you want, and click Add.
  5. For complex arguments, under the business service, select the appropriate integration object.
  6. For the inbound service type, enter an Event Method. For inbound Siebel business service, the usual value is QueryByExample. You can remove an object by selecting the object from the lower pane of the Find and Discover Enterprise Services window and clicking Remove.
  7. When you finish making your selections, click Next.

What to do next

Generate business object definitions and related artifacts needed for inbound event processing. The type of Siebel entities listed are based on the available selections for the Siebel metadata type.
