Configuring the Object Mappings for a New Business Component

The following procedure shows you how to configure the object mappings for a new or customized business component.

To configure the object mappings for a new business component

1. Log in to Siebel Tools and do the following:

   1. Locate the new business component that you want and its corresponding base table name, and make a note of the object mappings in the table.

   2. If the new business component is a child that has a many-to-many relationship with its parent business component, then locate the corresponding parent business object and make a note of the intersection table name.

   3. If the new business component contains a picklist business component, which does not exist in the object mapping table, then locate the corresponding picklist business object and make a note of the table name.

2. Log in to your Siebel business application, and configure the object mappings as follows:

   1. Navigate to the Administration - Siebel Mobile screen, Application Administration, and then the Object Definition view.

   2. Select the appropriate mobile application in the upper applet.

   3. Add all the required business component-to-table object mappings as follows:

      • Click New to add each new entry.

      • Set Table to the table name.

      • Set Business Component to the business component name.

        For example, to map Account to the S_PARTY table, set Business Component to Account and set Table to S_PARTY, and so on.

   4. If required, configure the intersection and picklist table mappings as shown in the previous step.

      For all intersection table mappings, note that the business component name and the table name must be the same. So if the name of the intersection table is S_CON_ADDR, then click New to add a new entry, and set Table to S_CON_ADDR and set Business Component to S_CON_ADDR.

3. Click the Settings tab, and set the Purge Interval to 30 if not already done so.
