Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration > Creating and Maintaining Integration Objects > About Synchronizing Integration ObjectsBusiness objects often require updates to their definitions to account for changes in data type, length, edit format, or other properties. It is common to want to alter database metadata, but if you do so you have to also update your integration objects to account for these updates. Otherwise, you can cause undesirable effects on your integration projects. Some examples of these changes are:
To help simplify the synchronization task, Siebel EAI provides the Integration Object Synchronize wizard. Although the process of synchronizing your integration object with its underlying business object is straightforward, review the integration objects you have modified to make sure that you have not inadvertently altered them by performing a synchronization. After synchronization, validate your integration object. NOTE: If business object changes are minor, such as adding a new single-value field, then it is best to synchronize the integration object. However, if business object changes are extensive, such as creating a new multivalue group, then it might be better to delete and re-create the integration object. |
