Cross-Application Process Integration and Workflow Control

To achieve process-level integration between Siebel applications and external applications, the Siebel Business platform supports workflow control. You define the integration process using the Workflow Process Designer in Siebel Tools. Workflow processes can be executed in any application object manager as a business service. A business service can be a prebuilt component, such as a transport adapter and the Siebel Data Transformation Engine, or can be custom-developed at design time or run time using one of the Siebel Scripting languages. Workflow processes can also be executed in the Workflow Process Manager server component.
