An attribute specifies a column that contains data. Siebel Enterprise Integration Manager (EIM) uses this object type. For more information, see Siebel Developer's Reference.

CAUTION:  You must not modify this object type. Any modification you make might adversely affect Siebel CRM.

This object type occurs in the following location in the object hierarchy:

Table 206 describes properties that Siebel CRM uses with an attribute.

Category (S)

Specifies the group for the object properties that Siebel CRM displays on a property sheet. This grouping helps the user to use a property sheet.

Column Name (S)

Specifies the name of the attribute column.

Language Override Attribute (S)

Specifies the order of attribute columns for a language or locale.

Specifies the name of an attribute column in the client.

No Compile (S)

You can use one of the following values:

  • TRUE. Siebel CRM does not compile the object definition if you use the Tools menu in Siebel Tools.

Siebel Wins (S)

Specifies the attribute value to use if a conflict occurs during an upgrade. You can use one of the following values:

  • TRUE. Siebel CRM maintains the value that Oracle provides.
  • FALSE. Siebel CRM uses the existing property value.

For example, assume the value for the Search Specification property of the Action business component in an existing release is:

Assume you modify this value to the following:

[Type] <> 'Template' AND [Type] <> 'ABC'

In a new release, assume Oracle modifies this value to the following:

[Type] <> 'Template' AND [Type] <> 'XYZ'

If you upgrade Siebel CRM, then a conflict occurs and Siebel CRM uses a value according to the following value that the Siebel Wins property contains:

  • TRUE. Siebel CRM uses the value that Oracle provides in the new release.
  • FALSE. Siebel CRM uses the existing value.
