Library Base Name User Properties

The Deduplication and Data Cleansing business services include a generalized adapter that can communicate to an external data quality application through a set of dynamic-link library (DLL) files.

The Library Base Name business service user properties tell the Siebel application how to load the dynamic-link library (DLL). The names of the DLLs are vendor-specific, but must follow naming conventions as described in Vendor Dynamic Link Libraries.

The Siebel application loads the DLLs from the locations described in Table 8.

Perform one of the following procedures to determine the global data matching and data cleansing settings for the SDQ Universal Connector.

To register a data quality connector for data matching

1. Log in to Siebel Tools with administrative privileges.
2. For each match solution, configure a connector as a business service user property.
   1. In the Object Explorer, expand Business Service, and then select the DeDuplication business service.
   2. In the Object Explorer, select Business Service User Prop.

      TIP:   If the Business Service User Prop object is not visible in the Object Explorer, you can enable it in the Development Tools Options dialog box (View > Options > Object Explorer).

   3. In the Business Service User Properties list, add a new record with the following settings:

      Property Name	Value
      Vendor name Connector n, where n is a number starting from 1 Vendor name must match the value specified in the server parameter DeDuplication Data Type	Vendor value A vendor-specific value
      Vendor value Attribute - Library Base Name	The name of the vendor DLL

NOTE:  The DeDuplication business service is preconfigured for SSA and Firstlogic applications. To view the preconfigured settings, see and Preconfigured Matching Server Properties and Preconfigured Connector Properties respectively.

To define a data quality connector for data cleansing

1. Start Siebel Tools.
2. For each cleansing solution, configure a connector as a business service user property.
   1. In the Object Explorer, expand Business Service, and then select the Data Cleansing business service.
   2. In the Object Explorer, select Business Service User Prop.

      TIP:   If the Business Service User Prop object is not visible in the Object Explorer, you can enable it in the Development Tools Options dialog box (View > Options > Object Explorer).

   3. In the Business Service User Properties list, add a new record with the following settings:

      User Property	Value1
      Vendor name Connector n, where n is a number starting from 1 Vendor name must match the value specified in the server parameter Data Cleansing Type	Vendor value A vendor-specific value
      Vendor value Attribute - Library Base Name	The name of the vendor DLL
      Properties deprecated after 7.8.2 release
      VendorX Connector n where X is a number starting from 2 and n is a number starting from 4	namefirm
      VendorX Connector n where X is a number starting from 2 and n is a number starting from 4	address
      address Attribute - Library Base Name	The name of the DLL for address cleansing
      namefirm Attribute - Library Base Name	The name of the DLL for name cleansing

      1Configure these properties as required according to the third-party vendor requirements.

NOTE:  The Data Cleansing business service is preconfigured for SSA and Firstlogic applications. To view the preconfigured settings, see Preconfigured Matching Server Properties and Preconfigured Connector Properties respectively.
