Process of Configuring Usage Pattern Tracking

To configure usage pattern tracking, perform the followings tasks:

1. Creating Action Sets for Events
2. Associating Action Sets With Events

Creating Action Sets for Events

An action set includes the actions that are executed when an event occurs. After you create an action set with one action for usage pattern tracking, you associate this action set with the events that you want to monitor. For more information about creating action sets, see Siebel Personalization Administration Guide.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring Usage Pattern Tracking.

To create an action set for events

1. Navigate to the Administration - Runtime Events screen, then the Action Sets view.
2. In the Action Sets list, create a new record, and complete the necessary fields.

   Some of the fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Name	Type a name for the action set.

3. In the Actions list, create a new record for the action in the action set, and complete the necessary fields.

   Some of the fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Name	Type a name for the action.
   Action Type	Select the BusService action type for the action.
   Sequence	Type a sequence number of 1 for the action.
   Business Service Name	Type Usage Pattern Service for the business service of the action.
   Business Service Method	Type UsageLog for the business service method of the action.

Associating Action Sets With Events

After creating the action set, you associate it with the events to include in usage pattern tracking. The business service method (UsageLog) in the business service (Usage Pattern Service) of the action set is called when the events occur.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring Usage Pattern Tracking.

To associate the action set with events

1. Navigate to the Administration - Runtime Events screen, then the Events view.
2. In the Events list, create a new record for each event, and complete the necessary fields.

   Some of the fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Comments
   Sequence	Type a number to denote order in which the action set associated with the event executes relative to the other action sets associated with the event.
   Object Type	Select the appropriate object type for the event. Values include: Applet, Application, and BusComp.
   Event	Select the appropriate event. The object type that you select determines the events that are available for selection. For information about the descriptions of event values, see Siebel Personalization Administration Guide. The following events for all object types are available for usage pattern tracking: UPTGeneric. This event occurs when the server calls the TriggerUPTEvent application programming interface (API). UPTClientScript. This event occurs when a client script, such as a browser script or JavaScript, calls the TriggerUPTEvent application programming interface (API). For more information, see Browser Script Application Programming Interface and JavaScript Application Programming Interface. UPTServerScript. This event occurs when a server script calls the TriggerUPTEvent application programming interface (API). For more information, see Server Script Application Programming Interface.
   Action Set Name	Select the action set name that you create in Step 2 of Creating Action Sets for Events.
   Conditional Expression	Type a conditional expression to refine the data that applies to the event. You can click the select button in this field to access the Expression Designer dialog box where you can construct the expression. For example, if you want to monitor the event for only specific users, then you can specify those users in a conditional expression.
