The reason is, if a workflow is executed through runtime event or user property then the current business context is passed to the workflow due to BO given while creating the workflow record.
And my workflow uses Siebel Operation – Insert method which means it is creating the record in context of Active BO so it reflects immediately.

“client would like to see the updated data immediately after the activity is created”

I just wanted to iterate that if the automation was to occur in the background (such as a workflow invoked which would create the record out of context) that the current view would need to be refreshed after this automation to show the updated data.

In my updated requirement where the client want the activity to be created after the writerecord, at current the only way i know to do this is using script on the WriteRecord method. The way to create the new activity would be to instantiate the activity BC out of context and create the activity. However then the activity would not show up in the current context. So after that there would be script to refresh the current applet using FINS Teller UI Navigation business service RefreshCurrentApplet method.

In your scriptless solution, does this create the activity in the current context so that if you were in an Oppurtunity > Activities detail view and you updated the Account Type field it would show the new activity in the detail view list immediately? (im not sure i havent tried the solution).

client would like to see the updated data immediately after the activity is created

It does happen in real time and you immideatly start seeing the created activity.

I think I am missing something here

I have been thinking about it.. but haven’t had a chance to actually try something.
Solution suggested by you also came in my mind but it doesn’t feel right.. too many profile attributes and too many events will need to be taken care.

I am sure there is a better solution for this and is definitely worth finding.

Also in the theme of scriptless siebel, I would like to know how you would go about an additional requirement. Let's say that the client wants this automation to happen in real time and the client would like to see the updated data immediately after the activity is created. Ie. If the user is in an Oppurtunity > Activities detail view or if there exists an activities MVG on the current oppurtunity view then the client would like to see this data immediatly. How could this be implemented through the scriptless siebel solution? ……Quite often I receive this sort of requirement from the client.

Also to throw it out there, I would like to know if it is po
