Setting the Data Cleansing Type for Data Cleansing


For you to enable data cleansing, the Data Cleansing Type parameter must be set for your enterprise. Because Siebel eBusiness Applications have only one data cleansing solution available, this parameter is set by default after you install your Siebel Server. However, you can also review or change that setting through the Siebel Server Manager. Use the following procedure to review or change the Data Cleansing Type parameter setting at the enterprise level.

To review or change the Data Cleansing Type setting for the enterprise

  1. Log in to the Siebel application with administrator responsibilities.
  2. From the application-level menu, choose Navigate > Site Map > Administration - Server Configuration > Enterprises.
  3. Click the Parameters view tab.
  4. In the Parameter field in the Enterprise Parameters list, query for the Data Cleansing Type parameter and review the settings.

    Vendor1 appears in the Value field because the Siebel application uses the Data Quality Universal Connector as the data cleansing solution.

  5. (Optional) In the Value field, enter another data type, if you want to change the deduplication setting.
  6. If you changed the data type in Step 5, you must restart the server component for the new settings to take effect.
    1. From the application-level menu, choose Navigate > Site Map > Administration - Server Management > Servers.
    2. Click the Components Groups view tab (if not already active).
    3. In the Servers list (upper applet), select the appropriate Siebel Server (if you have more than one in your enterprise).
    4. In the Components Groups list (middle applet), select the component of your object manager, and use the Startup and Shutdown buttons to restart the component.

      For more information about restarting server components, see Siebel System Administration Guide.
