Agreement Copying

When a user clicks the Revise button for an agreement, the following actions occur:

• The agreement is revised, deep copied, and its version number is increased.
• Fields in the original agreement are read-only.

Table 18 shows how the Read Only Upon Revise user property determines the read-only behavior of the fields in the original agreement record. You can edit the Read Only Upon Revise user property to configure this read-only behavior after a user clicks the Revise button for an agreement. For more information about editing user properties, see Configuring Siebel Business Applications.

The Revise button uses signals and data maps. For more information about signals and data maps, see Siebel Order Management Infrastructure Guide.

In the preconfigured Siebel Field Service application, the Revise button is available in views that use the Service Agreement business object (for example, in the Agreements List view of the Agreements screen). The functionality associated with the Revise button uses an integration object. For the Service Agreement business component, the Instance Uniform Name EAI Object:Service Agreement user property sets this integration object. In the name of this user property, Service Agreement denotes the business object that the Service Agreement business component is in at run time. For the Service Agreement business component, the value of this user property is ISS Agreement. This value denotes the integration object.

If you want to set up the Revise button in a view that uses another business object, then you must add a new Instance Uniform Name EAI Object:BusObj user property (where BusObj is the name of the business object) to the business component associated with the business object. For the value of this user property, enter ISS Agreement.
