Database Extension Planning and Design

Siebel Tools and Siebel applications provide several tools that automate much of the process of implementing database extensions. However, to be successful, you need to plan and design your extensions before using these tools. Planning and design tasks are listed in this section, and those that the Database Extension Designer facilitates are described in more detail in subsequent sections.

You should use a test database environment where you can make and verify database extensions before they are propagated to the production database.

NOTE:  Be sure to lock these projects when extending the database through Siebel Tools: Newtable, EIM Interface Table, and ERP Interface Table.
