Can a prospect be converted to an opportunity via the web service?

Hi
We have successfully integrated an ecommerce website with the Siebel CRM system. Orders feed into Siebel Opportunities and customers expressing an interest in products who fill the "request for more info" form are fed into Siebel prospects.
We want to upgrade the system such that if a customer placing an order is found in the Siebel prospects table, we want to be able to convert it into an opportunity via the Siebel web service. This would be the equivalent of clicking the [Convert] button on the relevant prospect via the Siebel web admin site, i.e.
http://demo.bloommedia.co.uk/prospect.jpg
It's important that we 'convert' it rather than delete/recreate as we want to track the conversion rate.
We've asked Siebel via the customer support area but they have not answered, does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks in advance.

I’m not sure if you’re asking a technical question or a functional question, but I don’t see any reasons why you couldn’t use a web service to generate a Siebel Opportunity.
Functionally, as long as you have a “Customer” and a “Product” relationship, you have enough information to create an Opportunity in Siebel. Technically, if the data source is external to the Siebel application, then a Web Service is a valid logical integration solution.
The caveat, of course, is that your technical infrastructure and business model supports this solution.

    Do you have any clear-cut preference?

  • Converting a java file to a web service

    How can i convert a java file to a web service,And then invoke that service by making my other java file.

    You can convert your java file into a WSDL with the WSDL2Java utility in Axis. This will create a definition that will be accessible by potential clients.
    To deploy your java class, you can use Axis in a Web Server of your choice (Tomcat, Apache). All you need to do is run the Axis Admin Client for a deploy.wsdd file and point your client to the IP:PORT.
    Very straightforward.

  • Can not test the web service in JDeveloper.

    Hi there...
    I created an AppModule, added two custom methods, and generated a webservice for that. When I want to test the webservice I get the error "The Webservice Tester cannot be invoked because the WSDL document of the selected service cannot be read."
    If I right the webservice and select run, I can view the web page to invoke the methods, However I am wondering why I can't test the service inside the developer.
    The settings of my system are as follows:
    OS: windows 7 64bit
    JDeveloper: Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.3.0 , Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.3.PS2_GENERIC_100408.2356.5660
    I did not install any update for JDeveloper...
    So if anyone is having an idea what this problem is let me know.
    thanks .

    It seems that even if the test web service option does not work and i get the error, it is possible to run the web service, and then by clicking on the link in the log the tester in jdeveloper appears.
    Don't know the reason for such strange behavior.

  • Limitation on data that can be fetched (ABAP RFC) via a Web Service?

    Hi,
    Is there any limit on the data that can be fetched via a Web Service (ABAP exposed as Web Service). I am trying to fetch PI monitoring data from ABAP Tables via a Web Service and there can be thousands of messages proceesed say in a day and what if user is provided the option of fetching messages for a specefic duration.
    Please advise.

    Hello my friend
    If I understand your question correctly, there's an environment variable CPIC_MAX_CONV handles sessions between integration engine and adapter engine (ABAP and Java). By default, the value of this variable is 500, and you might want to increase it to 1000 at least, depends on system throughput. Recommended value from SAP for Production is 5000.
    Hopefully it's helpful,

    You're saying that when you click on the  iCloud preference pane button it sends you to the defunct MMe
    rather than giving you this?
    Is your profile up to date, i.e. are your running 10.7.5?  Make sure you click on the iCloud button and not the MMe button.

  • How can i request an input of data from a deployed web service via a html

    Hi all, I am currently having trouble with a web service. I want a client to be able to input a numerical value for a control in a deployed VI.
    At present i have one main vi that generates a signal and i've collected waveform data and displayed this data on a a chart. The web service uses a static folder containing html and javascript files. The html file calls the js file which parses the waveform data and returns to html to be stored as a chart_div. I have all the controls and indicators in one VI, connected by terminals using GET method.
    I am looking for a way of scripting a request form so that when called by the html file, the client user can input a control and change the values on the waveform graph. I also have an update button that requests updated data. 
    If anyone could suggest a method of how to accomplish this it would be SO helpful
    Thanks, Chris

    Hi Chris,
    I take it you are using the RESTful API method to GET the data. In that case you shoul be able to perform a http POST from your js code in order to update the controls.
    This could be done as form components are updated, or after a submit button is pressed (I'm sure you are familiar with this part).
    Please see here for more information: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01​/lvhowto/build_web_service/

  • Can't re-add printer after removing from eprint center - 'Web Services Problem'

    I have an HP Photosmart Premium C310 series printer (Model Number CN503B) which I have been using with ePrint for about 18 months. Aside from intermittent issues it has worked, I use a chromebook most of the time so rely on the ePrint option via Google Cloud Print.
    Last week it stopped working, with every job in the list showing as cancelled. Following advice on the forum I removed the email address of the printer from the eprint center. I thought it would then be simple to add the printer back. However, I have been unable to connect the printer to the web service so I cannot create the code I need to add the printer back.
    STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
    1. Factory reset printer settings
    2. Factory reset network settings
    3. Restart printer and Reboot router
    3. Settings -> Network -> Wireless Setup Wizard
    4. Choose correct SSID, enter password for WPA
    5. ‘Connected to Network’
    6. Settings -> Web -> Enable Web Services
    7. ‘Accept terms’ screen -> Accept
    8. ‘Checking for product updates’ screen shows briefly then returns to 'accept terms' screen
    9. Next it makes a ping sound and shows ‘Web Services Problem’ ‘Problem connecting to Web Services Server’, it then pings again a few seconds later (which ties in with what I see in the network logs as a second attempt)
    10. Log on to printer via web interface and set IP address of printer to manual IP outside DHCP range (as advice on other threads in this forum). Check DNS setting valid (same as gateway server which all other devices on network are also using successfully as DNS)
    11. Repeat steps 6 and 7 - still same error message
    I consider myself technically savvy and have followed all advice I can find on this forum including the following:
    1. reverting to printer and network defaults
    2. rebooting router
    3. assigning static IP address to printer outside of DHCP range of router
    4. connecting to printer via web interface and setting DNS to variously: same as gateway, google DNS (8.8.8.8), ISP DNS
    5. adjusting firewall settings on router to explicitly allow and log outbound connection on the HP ports (already had a rule allowing all outbound connections)
    As mentioned, the printer worked fine with ePrint previously so I suspect the ePrint server is rejecting a request from my printer for some reason, maybe because there is old / corrupt  data on the server regarding my specific printer.
    I’m logging outbound traffic from the printer and here are what the router logs show me (printer IP replaced with 192.168.x.x below, even though it is not public )

    Looks like both are HP sites: first is 'g4t2674.houston.hp.com' and the second secure one is ‘registration-pro-site2eprint.houston.hp.com’ which sound likely to be correct. That suggests the DNS is working but that the registration server doesn’t like the request for some reason.
    I had the printer registered for Google Cloud Print but I have now deleted that also and it doesn’t seem to have made any difference (assume it just formats and forwards to the HP ePrint email anyway).
    One hack that sheds some further light is to switch off wifi on the printer and then switch on ePrint. Eprint gives an error but stays set as 'on'. When I then switch wifi back on I can then at least check for product updates (it tells me I have the latest product updates). However, web services are still a 'no go'. Network traffic for that product update exchange looks like this:

    So clearly the printer can communicate to those servers well enough to find it has the latest firmware. 
    I realise this is a lot of information but hopefully some of it is helpful for troubleshooting.
    Thank you in advance for any help!

    The issue disappeared this weekend. I didn't change anything so it must have been something server side. I notice others with the same issue have also seen it resolved.
    Thanks to all those who contributed and tried to help out. Although disappointed I went for a long time without ePrint I'm glad that action was apparently taken to resolve in the end.

  • How can I invoke the web service manually in websphere?

    Hi
    I've developed a webservice application using Rational Application Developer (RAD). I deployed it in a websphere 6.1 application server, using the administration console to import the war file that I had previously exported with RAD.
    My webservice application is listed in the "Enterprise Applications" section of websphere's administration console as started.
    My question is: how can I invoke the web service manually? Is there some kind of websphere generated webpage that I can use to call it manually?
    I tried http://<server:port>/<contextroot> and http://<server:port>/<contextroot>/<servicename> in a webbrowser, but it doesn't work. Is it possible to invoke the web service manually, or do I need to develop a client?
    Thanks in advance
