Guidelines for Using a Transient Business Component

It is recommended that you adhere to the following guidelines when using a Transient Business Component (TBC):

  • If you use a TBC that references a particular Business Object, then you must add that TBC to the Business Object or you will receive an error. Note that a TBC does not require a link to be defined on the Business Object Component.

  • Siebel CRM might consider data that resides in a task property as transient data. The source of the data determines how Siebel CRM will display it. Consider the following capabilities when deciding whether to store transient data in a TBC or in a task property:

    • Siebel CRM displays data that it gets from a TBC in the Siebel client.

    • Siebel CRM cannot display data that it gets from a task property in the Siebel client.

  • You can enter data from a TBC into a task property or a business component field.
