Siebel Remote and Replication Manager Administration Guide > About Siebel Remote > About Using This Book > How This Book Describes ObjectsFor brevity, this book describes how an object, such as a user property, does something. For example, this book states the following: The Copy Contact user property copies contacts. In strict technical terms, the Copy Contact user property only includes information that some other Siebel CRM object uses to copy contacts. For brevity, to describe how Siebel CRM uses the value that a property contains, this book typically only describes the property name. For example, assume Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains. This is a property of a tree node object. This book only states the following: Siebel CRM displays the Display Name property of the tree node. In reality, Siebel CRM displays the value that the Display Name property contains. About Objects and MetadataA Siebel object definition defines the metadata that Siebel Remote uses to run a Siebel application. The Account List Applet that Siebel Tools displays in the Object List Editor is an example of an object definition. It includes metadata that Siebel Remote uses to render the Account List Applet, such as the height and width of all controls in the applet, and all the text labels that it must display on these controls. The Siebel Repository is a set of database tables that stores these object definitions. Examples of types of objects include applets, views, business components, and tables. You use Siebel Tools to create or modify an object definition. The object manager hosts a Siebel application, providing the central processing for HTTP transactions, database data, and metadata, which is data that the object definitions contain. It is different from Siebel CRM data, which is data that is specific to your business, such as account names and account addresses. For more information, Configuring Siebel Business Applications. How This Book Describes Relationships Between ObjectsAn object definition includes properties and a property includes a value. For example, the Business Object property of the Account Address view contains a value of Account. To describe this relationship, this book states the following: The Account Address view references the Account business object. Sometimes the relationship between objects occurs through multiple objects. For brevity, this book does not always describe the entire extent of relationships that exists between objects through the entire Siebel object hierarchy. For example, because the Account business object references the Account business component, and the Account Address view references the Account business object, this book states the following: The Account Address view references the Account business component. |
