Customizing Meta Information

The siebel_meta_info.xml file includes the following meta information:

  • A description of the object types that Siebel CRM Desktop supports.

  • Fields that are defined and the type for each field.

  • XML element names that Siebel CRM Desktop uses to build or parse a Siebel message. It uses information about the relations between objects from the file for the Siebel message.

  • The definition of each object that Siebel CRM Desktop supports. This definition includes a unique name, an XML element, and an XML collection element that Siebel CRM Desktop uses in a Siebel message.

Every object field includes a name, a Siebel data type, and an XML element. Siebel CRM Desktop uses this information in a Siebel message to display values and filters for that field.
