Setting the DB Operation

In some situations, if Siebel CRM modifies data, then it must also modify some other data. Siebel CRM typically implements this data dependency at the Object Manager layer through business components and run-time events. Database operations that workflow policies run provide an alternative that works at the Siebel database record level.

It is recommended that you configure Siebel CRM to use DB Operation only if the data dependency is centered around database records rather than business components. For example, if Siebel CRM must update one database record if it inserts another database record, then you can use DB Operation regardless of the business components that the two database records belong to, or whether the two database records belong to a business component at all.
