Configuring an XML Hierarchy Converter

The fourth component is a hierarchy converter. For information about Siebel hierarchy converters, see XML Reference: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.

To configure an XML hierarchy converter

  1. Name the hierarchy converter appropriately (it must be unique within the workflow).

  2. Choose the type of business service from the multi-value group (MVG) window.

    For this component, choose the XML Hierarchy Converter.

  3. Choose the method.

    This example uses the XML Hierarchy to XML Document method because, for an outgoing message, the final conversion is from an XML hierarchy to an XML document that can be accepted by any XML-compliant converter at the external location.

  4. Set the input and output arguments, XML Hierarchy name, and XML document name.

    The following are the input argument settings for the example hierarchy converter configuration.
