About Compiling and Publishing

In Siebel Tools, you compile modifications to implement your configuration changes in the user interface of the Siebel application. You compile the modifications that you make to objects into the Siebel Repository File (SRF) of the Siebel application.

In Siebel Composer, you publish modifications to implement your configuration changes in the user interface of the Siebel application. You publish the modifications that you make to objects directly into the Siebel application. You do not specify a SRF in the publication process. For more information about publishing, see Publishing Modifications in Siebel Composer.
