Troubleshooting Postmerge UI Problems
Upgrades: Releases 7.0.x, 7.5.x, 7.7.x. Environments: Development environment only. This topic is part of an upgrade process. See How to Perform the Upgrade. Basic Troubleshooting Guidelines
If views or screens do not display, do the following:
- Verify that the user has been assigned the correct responsibilities.
- In Siebel Tools, verify that the screen view and its parents have the
Display In Site Map property, and the Display In Page property set to TRUE.
- Verify that the screen view and its parents have the Viewbar Text and Menu Text properties filled in.
- If an applet does not display all the fields or controls after upgrade, check in Siebel Tools for a Web template of the same name, but appended with
-Expanded and specify this Web template for the applet. These templates provide additional placeholders for mapping fields and controls.
- In Siebel 7.5, the
Business Address business component was replaced with the CUT Address business component. If you are upgrading from a release prior to 7.5, you must modify all links to Business Address applet so they point to CUT Address .
About the Postmerge Utilities Log
After the repository merge, you must run the postmerge utilities. These utilities do the following:
- Validate UI components to verify they were migrated correctly to the new repository.
- Modify UI objects to implement new UI features. For example, they modify form applets and multi-value group applets to conform to the UI standard introduced at Release 7.7.
- Verify that customized UI objects are configured correctly.
