Configuring the Search Definition on the Siebel Developer Web Client

This topic covers configuring the Search Definition in the SearchDefName parameter of the application configuration file for the Siebel Developer Web Client. Application configuration file names are in the format <application>.cfg, for example, the file shm.cfg is the Siebel Hospitality application configuration file, and the file uagent.cfg is the Siebel Call Center application configuration file. Verify that you are using the correct application configuration file by checking the ApplicationName parameter in the file.

NOTE:  This configuration change must be applied to each application configuration file for each language in the enterprise.

To configure the Search Definition on the Siebel Developer Web Client

1. Open the application configuration file in a text editor:
   • On Windows the file is located at: <install_dir>\siebsrvr\bin\<language>\<application>.cfg
   • On UNIX the file is located at <install_dir>/siebsrvr/lib/<language>/<application>.cfg
2. Go to the SIEBEL section of the configuration file.
3. Change the value of the SearchDefName parameter to the Search Definition Name value configured in the Search Definition view, and save the changes.
