Loading ...Next step in the process is to create and configure BC
* Creating Business Component
Steps to create business component are same as creating any other business component. You can create it through Business Component wizard and choose the table created in previous steps.
* Configuring Business Component
There are two important things that you will need to do this BC for it to work.
- Uncheck the Log Changes property for this BC
- Provide Data Source Name in Data Source Field
Once you configure these details then you can use this BC in your configuration just like any other BC. You can base your applets on this BC and create views.
Your configuration in the Siebel tools is now over. There is just one more thing that you need to do, to make all this work.
* Creating Data Source
- Create a data source (with same name as you have specified in table and BC) that will connect to external database.
I am not going to go into details of data source. I have written posts giving overview of data source and how to create data source.
You need to create an entry of this newly created data source in your CFG file for dedicated client to work and you need to create subsystem in Server Configuration for thin client to work.
* Creating an entry in CFG file:
- Open your client CFG file.
- Copy and paste details of your [ServerDataSrc] section in CFG
- Rename this data source to the name that you have mentioned in tools.
(As in our example your data source entry name is ContactEBC. So, your new section will start from [ContactEBC] as shown below)
Now your EBC is ready to work through dedicated client.
In next few posts I will be discussing how to configure subsystem to make it work with thin client and Solutions of the problems I faced while working with EBC.

Hi Neel,
First i like to thank you & everyone who share their real time problems with others. Im just new to the siebel development & it really helpful for me when i saw about different problems and their solutions. I like to know what the common errors we face while we upload date into siebel basetable with EIM. If anybody face any problems please share the situation and EIM error code.
Waiting for your replies.
Please anybody want to share any info regar EIM error topics request to forward mail to rohitsiebel@gmail.com
Excellent!! First i would like to thank Neel for providing such a good platform to share all these worthful posts.
And when can we expect the posts on how to configure subsystem to make it work with thin client and Solutions of the problems faced while working with EBC.
Once again thank you for posting related to EBC.
I want to know how to create Siebel Server datasource, as i would like to access data(view) from external database server not siebel server, any one can help me to create Datasource to connect external database server & provide me the steps
Thanks

Yes the Concepts that explained are very useful.when we can expect the posts on how to configure subsystem to make it work with thin client and Solutions of the problems faced while working with EBC.
Could it be ASAP.
thanks in advance.
Hi,
Do we need to give DSUserName and DSPassWord parameters to configure in the datasource along with the parameter mentioned for EBC to work?
Cheers,
Jimit
Will the BC created in this process be based on any special class? or the same BC base class???
No, the class of the BC will not be special it will based on Base Class
Siebel Unleashed is awesome… very simple langauge…. thanks for the wonderful Platform
Hi
Is it possible to update EBC fields from siebel using workflow.
Yes, you should be able to do it if it is not created from a view.. I haven't tried though… but it is suppose to work just like normal BC….
