Using the Review Conflicts and Actions Dialog Box of the Import Wizard

Figure 7 includes the dialog box that Siebel Tools displays if it determines that a difference exists between an object in the repository and an object in the archive. You can use this dialog box to review differences and to modify the work that Siebel Tools does to resolve the conflict.

Conflicting Objects Section

The Conflicting Objects section displays the hierarchy of objects that include differences. This hierarchy uses the same structure as the object type hierarchy that exists in the repository but it only displays objects that include conflicts rather than all repository objects. The objects in the Object Differences dialog box include objects for all hierarchical levels, not just top-level objects.

Object Differences Section

The Object Differences section lists the objects that include a difference. It includes the following columns:

• File column. An X in this column indicates that the object exists in the archive.
• Repository column. An X in this column indicates that the object exists in the repository. An object can exist in the archive and in the repository. These columns provide information only. You cannot modify them.
• Action column. Indicates the proposed resolution for the object. Siebel Tools uses the choices you make in the Conflict Resolution section of the Preview pane to determine the work that it does to display information in this column. To modify this work, you can right-click the value in the Action column, and then choose another action. For a description of these values, see Options You Can Choose to Resolve a Conflict.

Attribute Differences Section

The Attribute Differences section displays the property value conflicts for the object you choose in the Object Differences section. It only lists the properties that include a conflict. Siebel CRM uses the terms attribute and property. These terms have the same meaning.

Table 18 describes the columns in the Attribute Differences section.
