About Representing Siebel Integration Object Instances as XML Documents

You can represent any integration object instance in Siebel Business Applications as an XML document (or created from a properly formatted XML document). This makes it convenient to save an object to a file for viewing or to send it over a transport, such as HTTP or IBM WebSphere MQ. You can control the format of the XML document through the integration object definition in the Siebel Repository. You can use the EAI XML Converter business service to perform translations between integration object instances and the corresponding XML representation.
