Siebel Database Upgrade Guide > Application Planning for a Siebel Upgrade > Upgrade Planning for Siebel Web Template Files and Style SheetsEnvironments: Development environment only. Siebel Web templates and Siebel Web template files (SWT files) help define the layout and formatting of the user interface, such as views, applets, and controls. The Siebel Web Engine in the Siebel Server uses the Siebel Web templates to build Web pages, which it then forwards to the Siebel Application Interface. A Siebel Web template file contains regular HTML or XML tags interspersed with Siebel tags. Siebel tags are prefixed by When you install Siebel Application Interface or Siebel Tools, you receive new style sheet files. The upgrade process does not use your existing files. If you have manually customized your Siebel Web template files or style sheet files, then you must evaluate whether to reimplement these customizations in the new Siebel Web template files and style sheet file. Observe the following planning guidelines for reimplementing customizations:
All Siebel Web template files must be copied into one directory and you must provide the same folder path during the upgrade process. The style sheet files must be copied to the Siebel Application Interface installations in the environment. The files must also be included in upgrade kits sent to remote sites. Siebel Web template files have an The style sheet files are located in the installation directory of Siebel Application Interface and Siebel Tools (Windows path syntax). For example: Siebel Application Interface: Siebel Tools: The steps for reimplementing customizations to these files and copying them to new environments are included in the upgrade process topics in Overview of Performing a Siebel Database Upgrade. For information on how Siebel Web templates and style sheet files work, see Configuring Siebel Business Applications and Configuring Siebel Open UI. In Siebel Innovation Pack 2015 and later, a script is executed that migrates data from Siebel Web template files into table-based content in the Siebel database. For Incremental Repository Merge, Siebel Web template migration occurs during the upgrep operation. For full upgrades, this migration occurs during the upgphys operation.
