About the Display of Workflow Policy Objects

This topic describes how workflow policy objects are displayed in the Siebel client. For information about how workflow policy objects are displayed in Siebel Tools, see About the Workflow Policy Object Hierarchy in Siebel Tools.

About Workflow Policy Object Definitions in the Siebel Client

You use Siebel Tools to modify predefined or to create custom workflow policy object definitions and workflow policy programs. Once deployed, these customizations are visible in the Workflow Policy view and the Workflow Action view in the Siebel client.

Object Definitions Displayed in the Workflow Policy View

After object definitions for a Workflow Policy Object have been deployed from Siebel Tools, they appear in the Workflow Policy view in the Siebel client. Table 49 describes these objects.

Workflow Policy Object

Workflow Object picklist in the Policies List applet.

Workflow Policy Component Column

Condition Field picklist of the Conditions applet.

Values displayed in the picklist for the Condition field are context-sensitive, depending on the value in the Workflow Object field in the Policies List applet.

Object definitions for the Workflow Policy Component do not appear in the Workflow Policy view. However, the Workflow Policy Component object type acts as an aggregator for values displayed in the Condition Field. Since the Workflow Policy Component Column object type is a child of the Workflow Policy Component, values for the Workflow Policy Component Column object definitions that are part of a given Workflow Policy Component are displayed in the Condition Field.

To view the deployed definitions, in the Siebel client you navigate to Administration-Business Process > Policies.

Object Definitions Displayed in the Actions View

After object definitions for a Workflow Policy Program have been deployed from Siebel Tools, they appear in the Workflow Action view in the Siebel client. Table 50 describes these objects.
