Script Assessment
When planning your upgrade, analyze the current scripts and plan how they will be migrated to the new version. When migrating from Siebel 5.x or 6.x to Siebel 7.x, most scripts on applications, business components and business services are easily migrated to the new version. However, there are three types of scripts that often require extra effort to migrate:
- Applet scripts
- Scripts that reference the UI
- Scripts that interact with desktop applications
Level of Effort for Script Migration
If you are upgrading from version 5.x or 6.x, for planning purposes, categorize scripts based on how easy they will be to migrate. Use the categories Table 4 to help plan your script migration:
The complexity of the script itself does not determine how difficult it will be to migrate, but rather its interaction with the UI does. For example, although a script may have 300 lines and interact with multiple business components, as long as there is no UI interaction in the script, it should be easily upgraded to Siebel 7.x.
