Updating the Siebel Configurator Cache with Product Class Changes

This topic is part of About Siebel Configurator Caching.

While editing a product class record, a product administrator can select Update Cache to remove the version access keys of a cached product class from the Siebel Configurator cache for all versions of the selected product class. This forces the application to consult the database the next time it requires a version access key. A product administrator must select Update Cache if he or she modifies a nonversioned cached property such as, for example, a product name. If the product administrator does not select Update Cache, a Siebel Application Object Manager that has a version already cached uses the old version. For more information about administration options for the Siebel Configurator cache, see Administering the Siebel Configurator Cache.

To update the cache with class changes

1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Classes view.

   The Product Classes list applet appears.

2. Select a product class and modify it or its attribute definitions as needed.
3. From the menu in the Product Classes list, choose Update Cache.
