About Siebel Update Server Components

When you load or reload D&B data, you must update the D&B Account tables and the Siebel Account tables in the Siebel database. This update is accomplished by running server components:

• D&B Update Manager (D&B). Moves D&B marketing data from the staging table (S_DNB_UPDATE) into the normalized D&B Account tables, which are the basis for the D&B All Accounts View. For more information, see the figure in the topic Single Task Siebel Update Server Components.

• D&B Update Manager (Siebel). Updates the records in the Siebel Account tables for accounts with matching D-U-N-S numbers. For more information, see the figure that shows how the D&B Account tables are mapped to the Siebel Account tables in the topic Single Task Siebel Update Server Components.

• A third component, D&B Update Manager MultiTask, is also provided. This component can be used in place of D&B Update Manager (D&B) or D&B Update Manager (Siebel) to run the update using multiple, parallel processes. For more information, see Multiple Task Siebel Update Server Component.
