Configuring Siebel Assignment Manager to Use Reporting Tables and Columns

Siebel Assignment Manager provides a special set of tables to which you can write assignment results for what-if analysis. These tables are known as reporting tables, and the environment in which you work with these tables is known as the reporting environment. When you work in the reporting environment, you work in reporting mode.

By default, reporting mode is turned off; Assignment Manager does not write to the reporting tables. Using Siebel Tools, you can configure Assignment Manager to use reporting tables and columns (in lieu of actual assignment tables) by defining Assignment Object and Assignment Object Extension object properties.

Note: You can retrieve reporting mode table data by using native database utilities, such as SQL*Plus, Query Analyzer, and so on. Do not modify or delete this data. Rather, assignment administrators use the reporting tables to preview the temporary reporting results before executing Assignment Manager in actual production tables.
