Comparing Two Objects in Different Repositories

You can compare an object in the current repository to an object in a different repository.

Note: The objects that you compare must have the same name in both repositories. A workflow name is appended with the version number of the workflow. Consequently, to compare two workflows in different repositories, the workflows must have the same name and the same version number.

To compare two objects in different repositories (Siebel Tools)

  1. In the Object Explorer, select an object type.

  2. In the Object List Editor, select one top-level object type.

  3. Click the Tools menu, click Compare Objects, and then click Selected vs. Repository.

  4. In the Open Repository dialog box, select the repository that includes the object you want to compare, and then click Open.

  5. Examine the results in the Compare Objects dialog box.

    This dialog box displays the following:

    • The object in the current working repository in the one window

    • The corresponding object in the other repository in the other window

      You can update the current working repository or the other repository from the Object Comparison dialog box. For objects that are not Workspace-enabled, to do an update, you must make sure the project that the object references is locked. For more information, see Elements of the Compare Objects Dialog Box.
