Choose File > New Object... to display the New Object Wizards.
Select the EAI tab, select the Integration Object icon, and click OK.

Review and take necessary actions to address the issue.
Click Finish to complete the process of building the integration object.
In the Object Explorer, select Integration Object > Integration Component >Integration Component Field object.

The Integration Component and Integration Component Field applets appear.

Select the XXX_Attachment Component and the Attachment Id Component fields, and verify that the Data Type for the Attachment Id field is set to DTYPE_ATTACHMENT.
Compile the .srf file and copy it to the object directory under your Siebel Server directory as well as under your Tools directory.

NOTE:  You need to stop the services before copying the .srf file. For details on the .srf file, see Siebel Tools Reference.
