If you cannot update a Siebel field, you might be required to perform configuration changes on the Siebel system. The following procedure describes how to verify whether a Siebel field is activated for updates.
To verify whether a Siebel field is activated for updates:
The SRF file is usually located in the \tools\OBJECTS\ENU folder of the Siebel server install, for example:
D:\sea752\siebsrvr\OBJECTS\ENU
The file is usually located under a similar folder, for example:
D:\sea752\tools\OBJECTS\ENU
If the property is false, that is, it has no check box selected or it has the value FALSE (this depends on the Siebel Tools GUI configuration that you are using), then you must change it to true, as explained in the following steps.
Note: This procedure refers to the check box as the method for making the property TRUE.
Note the name of the project being locked. It will be specified in the Project property of the Business Component for the field being made Force Active.
This places a check mark in the property field.
If there is no value in the Multivalue Link property, then proceed to the next numbered step.
If there is a value in this property, it is a reference to another Business Component. This indicates that the field in question is linked to a field in the Business Component identified by this property.
You must compile the project so that the changes take effect.
The Object Compiler appears.
If the field had a Business Component defined in the Multivalue Link property, you also must select the project(s) for the additional Business Component(s) you updated.
In this procedure, siebeltest.srf is the copied file.
Compiling could take several minutes.
This could take 5-10 minutes.
You can now update the fields through the adapter or Siebel application.
