How Are State Models Enforced?
State models are enforced on the Siebel business logic level. Thus, state models are enforced for updates that you make through Siebel Visual Basic, Siebel eScript, and Workflow Processes. However, state models are not enforced for updates that do not go through Siebel Application Object Managers, such as updates that you make through Enterprise Integration Manager (EIM) or Workflow Policy programs.
