Siebel – Enable Detailed Logging – Local
Very often we come across scenarios wherein the process is not really clear through the interface exposed to us. We generally need to go into detailed logs at various levels to understand the internal process, and as to which all parameters are flowing at each step in the flow. The server level settings are different. I will cover here, as to how we can enable or disable detailed logging of Siebel processes in our Dedicated, Local or Sample environments. We can use it to understand complex Siebel processes in detail, for eg. eConfigurator and ePricer related flows.

Siebel- Close Browser window when logging off
In case of standard interactivity applications like eSales , eService, when user logs off, he is directed to the page through which he logged in the application. But there is a requirement to close the IE when user logs off. Here we are doing this for eSales Application. This can be done in following manner:
• Create a new .swt file say “LogOffDestination “ which contains following HTML script:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>

Siebel 7.x – Party Model Changes
After introduction of party model, the table structure (as far as EIM is concerned) have changed tremendously. The largest data model change involves the Party model, which I think is basis of post siebel 7 releases. Accounts, Organizations, Internal Divisions, Contacts, Employees, Positions, and Households are all party entities and are the logical extension table of S_PARTY and they all have the corresponding entry in S_PARTY base table and the data is brought into the business components through an implicit join (PLEASE NOTE THEY ARE NOT EXPLICIT JOINS).

Siebel – Remove About SRF Window
In my previous post, I had discussed as to how we can control how we can control the data being displayed in the Siebel Client, About SRF window. You can read the article here.
One impromptu question came up from the audience, “What if I want to limit opening of the About SRF window itself in the first place?”. I said, “Nice question!”.
Try out the following steps to disable the About SRF window itself from Siebel Web Client.

Siebel – Unable to launch Local Client
Hi all,
I was making a fresh install of Siebel yesterday, when something very strange happened. I could not launch my Local Client. This was even more strange because:
1) I could successfully launch my Sample Client
2) I could successfully launch my Local Client when invoking it in Debug mode from within Siebel Tools!
