Copying Columns Using the GUI

You can set up Siebel Assignment Manager to copy columnar position or employee data using the graphical user interface (GUI) or by submitting a server component job from the Server Manager command-line interface (srvrmgr). This topic explains how to copy columns using the GUI.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring Siebel Assignment Manager to Copy Columns.

Prerequisites

The following procedure assumes the Position Specific Columns and Employee Specific Columns properties are preconfigured for the assignment object and the Copy Candidate Specific Data (CopyCandSpecData) parameter is set to Yes. For information on how to configure these properties and this parameter, see Configuring Assignment Object Properties and Modifying the Siebel Assignment Manager Component Parameters, respectively.

To copy columns using the GUI

1. Navigate to the Administration - Server Management screen, and then the Jobs view.
2. In the Jobs list, click New.

   A new record appears with a system-defined ID automatically generated with a status of Creating.

3. In the Requested Server field in the Job Detail subview, type the name of the Siebel Server on which you want to run the copy columns feature.

NOTE:  Assignment Manager copies position- or employee-specific data only if the Use Key Value parameter value is set to either Rule Group or None. If None, position-specific data is copied from any position in the ACCNT_POSTN table that was updated last, given every position in the team is for the same business reason.
