Update Method

This method is similar to the Synchronize method, except that the EAI Siebel Adapter returns an error if no match is found for the root component; otherwise, it updates the matching record and synchronizes all the children. For example, if you send an order with one order item to the EAI Siebel Adapter, it will take the following actions:

1. Queries for the order, and if it finds a match, it updates the record.
2. Updates or inserts the new order item depending on whether a match was found for the new order item.
3. Deletes any other order items associated with that order.
