About Using Siebel ePricer as a Business Service

The runtime Siebel ePricer engine code is embedded in a business service called Pricing Manager. This business service is based on the class CSSPricerService. Much of the CSSPricerService code and functionality is inherited from the class CSSBCBase. This is the base class that is used for providing basic business component functionality. As such, all the Pricing Manager routines can be invoked from applications that are based on a business component.

To use Pricing Manager, you will need basic API information with details about the methods, arguments, Siebel Tools business components, and user properties. This information is provided at the end of this chapter is the section titled Siebel Pricing Manager API.
