Performing Postupgrade Tasks for the Siebel Application

After you upgrade to the current release of Siebel CRM, you must perform a number of application-specific tasks. These include:

  • Upgrading Siebel Seeded Workflows.

    This postupgrade task is specific to the z/OS database platform.

  • You must also perform the relevant tasks in the chapter in Siebel Database Upgrade Guide that describes postupgrade tasks for the Siebel application.

When you have completed these tasks, your upgraded Siebel CRM system is ready for use.

Upgrading Siebel Seeded Workflows

Upgrades: All upgrades.

Environments: All environments.

This topic is part of an upgrade process. See How to Perform a Siebel Database Upgrade.

Customizations to seeded workflows were saved and migrated during upgrade, but you must manually reimplement them in order for them to work properly.

In Siebel CRM Release 7.7.x, workflow definitions were relocated to the Tools Repository.

To upgrade a seeded workflow

  1. In the Siebel Repository, revise each seeded workflow so that a new copy is created with a new version number.

  2. Manually merge in your customizations, and then deploy and activate the workflow.
