Siebel Support Web Unleashed

Good news for all the siebel professionals out there. Now you don’t need username and password to login to supportweb.

Jock Murray sent me this trick few days ago and he too found it on another siebel blog Siebel.be

“Everybody who works with Siebel and there for uses Support web will probably know about this trick but I mention it anyway (for those who should not know it yet).

When you want to search Support web for something you must need a login. If you just want to search, you can use a read-only login. If you want to create a SR, you need read/write access.

But with a little workaround, you can use Supportweb for searching without having a login. How? It’s very easy. Just go to the homepage of Supportweb (which will redirect you to https://ebusiness.Siebel.com/Supportweb/index.asp) and at the login screen just press the “Login” button without filling in the fields.

As expected nothing happens and you stay on the login page. Now, type in the address bar http://Supportweb.Siebel.com and you will be able to login and search.

I don’t know if Siebel/Oracle is aware of this ‘bug’ or not but it seems logical that they do, since so many people know about it. And if the didn’t know it, they might know it now. Although I doubt that someone from Oracle reads this blog.”

I tried it and it works. Enjoy Siebel Support web :)

    I was using the same way to read the support web for the past 3 years. Now I can’t do it from 14th Jan 2008 onwards ( as Oracle has announced that they are migrating to metalink)
    Hope they will open the support web for independent consultants/developers.(PS: they are cating like Microsoft now) :D

    Hi,

    Iam trying to create a button on a list applet and if we click on that button a confirm message box with OK and CANCEL options should appear.
    For this
    1) I created a button in applet control with type MiniButton and method ‘BSMethod’( which is my custom method).
    2) I wrote server script at applet level to enable that button.
    3) I wrote browser script in Applet_PreInvokeMethod event. Iam giving my code here.
    function Applet_PreInvokeMethod (name, inputPropSet)
    {
    if( name == “BSMethod” )
    {
    if( Confirm(“Are you sure you want to create a new record?”) )
    return (ContinueOperation);
    else
    return (CancelOperation);
    return (ContinueOperation);
    }
    return (CancelOperation);
    }

    4) I have used the genbscript utility to generate the browser script.
    But Iam getting an error “Specialized method BSMethod is not supported on business component’RN Operator’ used by business object ‘RN Operator’.

    Can anyone please suggest me the solution for this?

  • neel

    This kind of error will only come if you have forgotten to do a canceloperation at some place.

    and i don’t think you require to write cancel operation and continueoperation so many times..

    if you could paste your Server Script coding also then we should be able to help you out.

    And it will be great if you could use forum to post your queries then url of the forum is

    How to do the Split in Work Flows?
    Scenario is we will get one value in Variable and we need to split the variable value into different variables and need to store that in different Process Properties.
