Bookshelf v7.5: Assignment Object Parameter Usage

NOTE: The run-time parameter name is shown as it appears in the Siebel Tools Assignment Objects list applet. The property name is shown as it is appears in the Siebel Tools Properties window. In this table, the property name for a parameter is shown only if the property name differs from the run-time parameter name.

Table 38. Usage Comments of Run-Time Parameters
Run-Time Parameter	Properties Name	Usage Comments
Assignment Mode		Determines whether or not Assignment Manager performs filtering based on organizations or people. Valid values are: Independent, Org & Person-oriented, Organization-oriented, and Person-oriented.
Assignment Scoring Mode		If this parameter is set to Person-based (the default), the assignment rule score is set to the score of the highest-scoring employee or position for the rule. If this parameter is set to Organization-based, the assignment rule score is set to the score of the highest-scoring organization for the rule.
Auto Reassign		When this parameter is checked—parameter equals TRUE—Assignment Manager automatically reassigns objects if assignment attribute values change. The Generate Triggers server task looks for this flag when it generates triggers for the active assignment policy. If the parameter is unchecked—parameter equals FALSE—no trigger is created for the update; the assignment occurs once when the record is inserted. The default value is TRUE.
Calendar Activity Additional Fields		A string that provides extra information for use when creating an activity through availability-based assignment. This string follows a format of "parent field", "field 1", "value1", "field 2", "value2".
Calendar Create Activity		When this parameter is checked—parameter equals TRUE—Assignment Manager creates an activity in the employee calendar of every final assignee, blocking off the time needed to finish the task. When this parameter is not checked—parameter equals FALSE—no activity is created in the employee calendar.
Calendar Duration Column		The table column that references the duration of the object. This column is required for availability-based assignment.
Calendar Early Start Time Column		The table column that references the early start time of the object. This column can be used for availability-based assignment but is optional.
Calendar Start Time Column		The table column of the assignment object that references the start time of the object. This column is required for availability based assignment
Default Employee		Assignment Manager assigns this employee when a conflict or a tie occurs and the appropriate employees cannot be assigned. If the Default Employee property for an assignment object is not specified and all rules have failed for a request for that assignment object, Assignment Manager sets the owner id field in the object row to No Match Row Id.
Default Organization	Default Org	Assignment Manager assigns this organization when a conflict or a tie occurs and the appropriate organizations cannot be assigned. If the Default Organization property for an assignment object is not specified and all rules have failed for a request for that assignment object, Assignment Manager sets the owner id field in the object row to No Match Row Id.
Default Position		Assignment Manager assigns this position when a conflict or a tie occurs and the appropriate positions cannot be assigned. If the Default Position property for an assignment object is not specified and all rules have failed for a request for that assignment object, Assignment Manager sets the owner id field in the object row to No Match Row Id. When the Default Position property of an assignment object is set to null and that object does not qualify for any defined assignment rules, then Assignment Manager does not set Primary position on the object.
Employee Column		Name of the column in the employee intersection table that points to rows in the employee table (S_EMPLOYEE).
Employee Primary Column		Name of the column in the primary table that stores the primary employee (on a team) or single-owner employee.
Employee Primary Denorm Column		Name of the column in the primary table that specifies whether the primary employee is assigned by the denorm program.
Employee Primary Manual Column		Name of the column in the primary table that specifies whether the primary employee is manually assigned.
Employee Primary System Column		Name of the column in the primary table that specifies whether the primary employee is system assigned.
Employee Table		Name of the employee intersection table. If the assignment object can be assigned to multiple employees, this intersection table stores the set of employee IDs that are assigned to assignment object IDs.
Employee Team Copy Columns	Employee Primary Column List	Comma-separated list of column names in the employee intersection table that should be copied when the primary employee changes. Assignment Manager copies values from these columns from the old primary employee to the new primary employee.
Employee Team Denorm Column	Employee Denorm Column	Name of the column in the employee intersection table that specifies whether the employee is assigned by the denorm program.
Employee Team Manual Column	Employee Manual Column	Name of the column in the employee intersection table that specifies whether the employee is manually assigned.
Employee Team Score Column		Numeric column in assignment object team table that stores the score of the assigned employee.
Employee Team System Column	Employee System Column	Name of the column in the employee intersection table that specifies whether the employee is system assigned.
Ignore Extra Attributes	Ignore Assignment Attributes	When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager ignores the assignment criteria that are not relevant to the assignment object being assigned. For example, if you have an assignment rule that uses Service Request Priority as an assignment criteria, Assignment Manager ignores this assignment criteria when assigning opportunities and accounts because Service Request Priority is relevant only to service requests. When this parameter is unchecked, the assignment rule fails.
Inactive		When this parameter is checked—parameter equals TRUE—the object is no longer enabled (active). By default, this parameter is set to FALSE.
Keep Creator		When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager never deletes the object creator from the team.
Keep Man Asgn Primary Org		For teams only. When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager does not set the primary organization if the user explicitly sets the primary organization; Assignment Manager actually checks the Primary Organization manual flag in the object's primary table. By default, this manual flag is unchecked when the object is first created.
Keep Manual Assigned	Keep User Assigned	For teams only. When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager keeps manually assigned assignees and assignment rules.
Keep Manual Primary Employee	Keep Man Asgn Primary Employee	When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager does not set the primary employee if the user explicitly sets the primary employee; Assignment Manager actually checks the Primary Employee manual flag in the object's primary table. By default, this manual flag is unchecked when the object is first created.
Keep Manual Primary Position	Keep Man Asgn Primary Position	When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager does not set the primary position if the user explicitly sets the primary position; Assignment Manager actually checks the Primary Position manual flag in the object's primary table. By default, this manual flag is unchecked when the object is first created. For more information about setting the primary position, see the run-time parameter Set Primary Position.
Keep Manual Primary Rule	Keep Man Asgn Primary Group	For teams only. When this parameter is checked, Assignment Manager does not set the primary rule if the user explicitly sets the primary rule; Assignment Manager actually checks the Primary Assignment Rule manual flag in the object's primary table. By default, this manual flag is unchecked when the object is first created.
Lock Assignment Column	Exclude Column	When this parameter is set to a column name, the object is not assigned or reassigned if the column value is TRUE. If you want Assignment Manager to assign or reassign the object, set this parameter to null, or set the column value to FALSE. This column is not a property of the assignment object itself, but a property of the business component associated with the assignment object. Note: Every assignment object base table has an ASGN_USR_EXCLD_FLG column, and for some objects, this column is exposed in the Siebel application as a field named Lock Assignment. However, for assignment objects that do not have this column exposed, you can query the database for the ASGN_USR_EXCLD_FLG column in the appropriate table.
Organization Table	Org Table	Name of the organization intersection table. If the assignment object can be assigned to multiple organizations, this intersection table stores the set of organization IDs that are assigned to assignment object IDs.

Set Primary Employee		For teams only. When this parameter is set to TRUE, Assignment Manager is enabled for setting a primary employee. You select the primary employee for an assignment rule in the Assignment Rules view. The primary employee is the highest-scoring employee in the highest-scoring assignment rule for the object being assigned.
Set Primary Org		For teams only. When this parameter is set to TRUE, Assignment Manager is enabled for setting a primary organization. You select the primary organization for an assignment rule in the Assignment Rules view. The primary organization is the highest-scoring organization in the highest-scoring assignment rule for the object being assigned.
Set Primary Position		For teams only. When this parameter is set to TRUE, Assignment Manager is enabled for setting a primary position. You select the primary position for an assignment rule in the Assignment Rules view. The primary position is the highest-scoring position in the highest scoring assignment rule for the object being assigned. NOTE: If the property for the assignment object is Set Primary Position = False, then the existing primary is not modified by Assignment Manager; the primary remains the same. If the property for the assignment object is Set Primary Position = True, then the existing primary might be modified by Assignment Manager. This behavior is irrespective of the value in the Keep Man Asgn Primary Position property.
Set Primary Rule	Set Primary Group	When this parameter is set to TRUE, Assignment Manager is enabled for setting a primary rule. You select the primary rule for an assignment rule in the Assignment Rules view. The primary assignment rule is the highest-scoring rule for the object being assigned.
