Replicating a Task UI to the Siebel Mobile Web Client


This topic describes how to configure a task UI to run on a Siebel Mobile Web Client that can run with a regional database or a local database. The Inbox screen is visible in the Siebel Mobile Web Client. Siebel CRM does the following, by default:

  • Replicates to the Siebel Mobile Web Client a task UI inbox item that the user creates on the Siebel Server.
  • Replicates to the Siebel Server a task UI inbox item that the user creates on the Siebel Mobile Web Client.
  • Does not automatically replicate to the Siebel Mobile Web Client any object definitions for a task UI that reside in the SRF (Siebel Repository File).

To replicate a task UI to the Siebel Mobile Web Client

  1. In the Siebel client, navigate to the Administration - Workflow Process screen, Task Deployment, and then the Published Task view.
  2. In the Active Tasks list, query the Name field for the task deployment record that you must replicate.

    For example, search for the name of the task UI.

  3. Modify the Replication field of the task deployment record according to the following requirements:
    • To Regional for a Siebel Mobile Web Client that connects only to a regional database
    • To All for a Siebel Mobile Web Client that connects to a regional or a local database

How Siebel CRM Runs a Task UI Across Nodes

A run-time instance of a task UI is the underlying object of a task UI inbox item. Siebel CRM does not replicate a task run-time instance between the Siebel Server and the Siebel Mobile Web Client. A user can run a task inbox item only on the same node where Siebel CRM creates this task inbox item. For example, if the node is a server, then the user can only run the instance from this Siebel Server. If the user attempts to run a task UI inbox item from an incorrect node, then Siebel CRM returns an error.

Siebel CRM allows a task transfer only between users that reside on the same node. A user can transfer a task inbox item that Siebel CRM creates on the Siebel Server or regional node to other users that reside on the same server or regional node. If a user creates a task inbox item while using a Siebel Mobile Web Client, and if the user connects this client to a local database during login, then Siebel CRM cannot transfer this task inbox item.

Setting Synchronization Interval for a Task UI

You can set the synchronization interval for a task UI that Siebel CRM replicates to the Siebel Mobile Web Client to manage how frequently Siebel CRM does synchronization. For more information, see Siebel Remote and Replication Manager Administration Guide.
