Activities

The following guidelines suggest Siebel development tools that meet invocation requirements:

• The user manually invokes the process:
  • Siebel Task UI and Siebel Workflow allow the user to invoke processes.
  • Script can underlie UI buttons.
    • Script can leverage rules.
• The process is invoked by a runtime event:
  • Siebel runtime events can be used to trigger processes.
    • Runtime events can leverage rules, script, or both.
    • Siebel workflow processes can be invoked in response to Siebel runtime events.
• The process is invoked on a preset schedule:
  • Siebel workflow processes, such as periodic batch processes, can be invoked on a preset schedule.
