Improving Performance when Calling the BusComp_PreGetFieldValue Method

Siebel CRM runs any script that is attached to this event very frequently. It even calls empty scripts. These calls might cause a Siebel application appear to be unresponsive.

To improve performance when calling the BusComp_PreGetFieldValue method

• Remove scripts from the BusComp_PreInvokeMethod event that you do not require:

  1. In Siebel Tools, open a script you do not require.

     • In Siebel VB, delete the Function statement and the End Function statement.

     • In Siebel eScript, delete the function () statement and the {} function statement.

  3. Repeat these steps for all other scripts you do not require.
