Identifying Obsolete Objects

This procedure only applies to development environment upgrades.

NOTE:  This procedure is optional.

In Release 7.5, many objects have become obsolete. After performing the repository merge, you can generate a list of obsolete objects using Siebel Tools. Objects that were available in the Prior Standard repository are compared with the objects that are available in the New Standard repository. All objects that were available in the Prior Standard repository but are not available in the New Standard repository are obsolete in Release 7.5.

To generate a list of obsolete objects

  1. On the Siebel Tools workstation on which you performed your successful repository merge, select Screens > Application Upgrader > Application Upgrade Object List.
  2. In the Application Upgrade list, select the record of the successful merge.
  3. In the Object Differences list, click Query.
  4. Enter your query criteria in the Object Differences list:
    • Click the In Prior Standard check box so that a check mark appears in the check box.
    • Click the In New Standard check box and then click the check box again so that a check does not appear in the check box.
    • Click the In Prior Customized check box so that a check mark appears in the check box.
    • Click the Attribute check box and then click the check box again so that a check does not appear in the check box.
  5. Press Enter to run the query.

    All obsolete objects in Release 7.5 appear in the Object Differences list. You can filter the objects displayed by using the Top Parent Type and Object Type fields.
