UCM Integration Objects
The UCM integration objects contain the data hierarchy that is a subset of the data in a Siebel application business object. The UCM Integration objects map to the different UCM business objects in the Siebel application. Many preconfigured integration objects are provided, which you can extend and modify as necessary.
These integration objects can be found in the Siebel Repository, and their names start with CIF. In addition, you can create your own integration objects, using Integration Object Builder in Siebel Tools. For more information about this task, see Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.
This internal integration object is required so that the UCM business services, such as the UCM Transaction Manager, can receive and package the data from XML to a format understood by Siebel Application Object Manager (as business component data).
