Schema Generation Support

Siebel Tools provides the functionality to generate schema in the Document Type Definition (DTD) format and Microsoft's XML-Data Reduced (XDR) format. You import the generated schema into BizTalk for further processing. Here is what is involved:

Schema Wizard. You use the Schema Generator Wizard in Siebel Tools to generate DTD or XDR Siebel integration objects. The exposed integration objects are imported into BizTalk and stored on WebDAV as BizTalk document specifications.

Data Mapping. The document specifications created in BizTalk are used to map between the Siebel-published schema and partner applications' schema using the Microsoft GUI tool, BizTalk Mapper. Maps are stored on WebDAV in XSLT format.
