Updating the Siebel Product Configurator Cache with Product Class Changes

This topic is part of Administering the Siebel Product Configurator Cache.

While editing a product class record, a product administrator can select Update Cache to remove the version access keys of a cached product class from the Siebel Product Configurator cache for all versions of the selected product class. This forces the application to consult the database the next time it requires a version access key. A product administrator must select Update Cache if he or she modifies a nonversioned cached property such as, for example, a product name. If the product administrator does not select Update Cache, then a Siebel Application Object Manager that has a version already cached uses the old version.

To update the cache with class changes

1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Classes view.

   The Product Classes list appears.

2. Select a product class and modify it or its attribute definitions as needed.

3. From the menu in the Product Classes list, choose Update Cache.
