Preparing Siebel Financial Services Tables for Upgrade

Upgrades from: Siebel 6.x.

Environments: Development, production test, production.

This topic is part of an upgrade process. See How to Perform a Siebel Database Upgrade.

DESC_TEXT is a column in two tables, S_CONDITION and S_PROD_BNFT. To broaden platform support, this column is reduced in length from 250 to 200 characters during the upgrade from Siebel 6.x to Siebel 7.7.x.

Before the upgrade, examine these two tables for records that contain more than 200 characters. Manually reduce the size of these records to 200 characters or less.
