Configuring Siebel Business Applications for the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server 

Configuring Siebel Business Applications for the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server involves enabling cleansing on all object managers, specifying data cleansing settings, and setting up preconfigured vendor parameters and field mapping values for the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server.

Use the following procedure to configure Siebel Business Applications for the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server. This task is a step in Process of Installing the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server.

To configure Siebel Business Applications for the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server

1. Open the uagent.cfg file in a text editor, and modify the [DataCleansing] section of the file to include the following:

   [DataCleansing]
   Enable=TRUE
   Type=ASM

   The uagent.cfg file is located in the Siebel/bin/w32u/enu directory.

2. In your Siebel application, enable data cleansing to use the Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server as described in Enabling and Disabling Data Matching and Data Cleansing.

   For example, enable data cleansing at the object manager level, enterprise level, user level, and set the data quality settings (for data cleansing). Note that the Data Cleansing Type parameter must be set to ASM as shown in the following table.

   Parameter Name	Value
   Data Cleansing Enable Flag	True
   Data Cleansing Type	ASM

   1. Configure the ASM vendor applet (Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server vendor applet) as shown in the following table by navigating to the Administration - Data Quality screen, then the Third Party Administration view.

      Vendor Applet Parameter Name	Vendor Applet Parameter Value
      Name	ASM
      DLL Name	ssadqasm

   2. Verify that the preconfigured ASM vendor parameter and field mapping values are set up as listed in Universal Connector Parameter and Field Mapping Values for Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server.
   3. For better control over the data returned by ASM, add the following vendor parameters for Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server:

      Vendor Parameter Name	Description
      ASM Country Database Return Code	Specifies the ASM return codes under this vendor parameter for which any error messages returned are ignored and processing continues if the country database is not found. List return codes, separated by a comma. For example, if the customer is using Informatica Address Doctor Version 5 and the country database is not licensed, then specify the vendor parameter as follows: ASM Country Database Return Code: 25,26
      ASM High Deliverability Return Code	Specifies the ASM return codes under this vendor parameter for which addresses returned by the ASM Engine override the input address. If the ASM return code matches a return code defined within this vendor parameter, then the validated address sent by the ASM Engine is cleansed. In all other cases, the input address is retained. List return codes, separated by a comma. For example: ASM High Deliverability Return Code: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 This vendor parameter applies only if the DQ Cleanse High Deliverable Address vendor parameter is set to Yes.

3. Modify the ssadq_cfgasm.xml file as described in Modifying Configuration Parameters for Oracle Data Quality Address Validation Server.
