About Siebel Commerce Object Aggregator

Siebel Commerce Object Aggregator (SCOA) is a Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) Web application used to synchronize Siebel products, catalogs and price lists with ATG Web Commerce. SCOA is a reference application and is delivered as source code for each customer or system integrator to modify and compile.
