Siebel Econfigurator info about the future prospects please

Hi all,
My company is pushing me into accepting the role in Siebel E-config (for some products).. I have no idea about Siebel CRM though I have worked as a tester before...
Can some one please tell me whats the future for someone who has just worked on Siebel E-config(is this something hott)(ofcourse nothing is hott in this market but may be 1-2 yrs down the line)...What extra skills would I need to remain in the Siebel space ,may be not working for my present company but some one else in 2 yrs .
Please some one help me with some info..
Thank you.
Regards
Raj.

Hi Raj,
Siebel product configurator is a quite complex solution to be implemeted carefully(i.e. considering Oracle's Best-practices for it), however if you do it right, you will be greatly impressed by its capabilities and you will be in great demand...some of the best-practice is to spend a significant amount of time building the Product Model, and validating (via little prototypes) that this model is optimal and well fits the Siebel architecture. Infrastructure sizing is obviously key. Product "distribution" is also important (i.e. on which server(s) a product is going to be loaded on...) and will be a contributing factor to your product configurator's performance, scalability...you may also need to consider that the product configurator's architecture has quite changed from 7.5.3 to... 8.0...
and not to sell our Monitoring Tools...:)... as your team develops and tests/tunes product configurator, and then goes live with it on production, you will need Siebel-specific Monitoring Tools to help you analyze and troubleshoot its performance (along with the overall performance of Siebel), which we provide:
SiMon: Monitoring tool for Siebel,
SiDeb: Root-cause analysis for Siebel,
SiMaint: Maintenance for siebel, SiMon and SiDeb.
Hope this helps and good luck w/ this new role...

  • Questions about the future directions of InfoPath and Microsoft Access

    Because I have been confused about the future directions of InfoPath and Access, I wrote a short blog post, which I have pasted below.  My question is, can Microsoft provide some more guidance on Access vs InfoPath?  If Access is indeed the
    the future direction, can you please provide some pointers to resources that can help us transition.
    A Short Review of MS Access,  SharePoint ,InfoPath (2013)
    After the November 2012 SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas (#spc12) there were a number of blog posts and people saying that Access 2013 was great and would be replacing InfoPath.
    Marc Anderson and
    Ruven
    Gotz have short posts summarizing #SPC12 and touch on the subject of InfoPath and Access.  I also spoke with several individuals shortly after #SPC12 and they were excited about Access 2013.
    Since I rely heavily on InfoPath for much of what I do, I wanted to kick the tires and see what everyone was talking about.  First, a few notes about SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013.
    Microsoft should rename Access:  If you have tried to
    bing the word Access, then you know that the search results are overwhelming,  because the word "access" is used for so many other purposes.
    Use the RTM version of Office 2013! I was performing  my investigations by leveraging the Office 365 Beta and the Office Applications that come with it.  Not much was working!  After I uninstalled the Beta
    version of Office 2013 and Installed the RTM version everything seemed to work. 
    Windows 7 and IE 9.0: The drag & drop that is being touted as
    "manna from heaven" seems to work well with Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and IE 10, but it does
    not work with IE 9!
    Non Microsoft browsers are still second class citizens (except for the drag & drop):  Microsoft has finally done away with the Active X's for datasheet view (that is brilliant!)  One can now see the newly
    minted datasheet view in many browsers.  But I still find that one needs to be in IE to do a number of key manual opeartions.  For example pasting numerous rows of data from a spreadsheet into the new sheet view works only in IE.
    Access 2013
    Microsoft Access is touted as a non developer tool.  I know a number of people who are on the business side and love Access.  These people will like the renewed energy that Microsoft has applied to Access.   One should note that conceptually
    this functionality existed  in SharePoint 2010.  Here is what I see that is new:
    +The new version works better:Although I haven't tested it fully, it seems that many more features that work on the Desktop version of Access, now work in the published Web Application which is hosted by SharePoint 2013.
    +The new version has fairly robust browser based forms: End users can now fill in data using forms that are rendered in the browser.
    +The published version that resides in SharePoint now uses its own SQL server tables.  So the engine appears to be SQL Server, not a modified version of Access built for a server.  This stands to be quite robust, but I imagine
    that some quirks will surface due to new model.
    The limitations are:
    - Access is pretty much its own application and does not integrate with SharePoint building blocks.  For example, an Access table is not easy to integrate with a SharePoint workflow.  Further, although  Access forms now are visible
    in a browser, they are not nearly as rich as InfoPath forms.  InfoPath forms cannot easily integrate with the Access tables.  In order to integrate SharePoint features and Access, one needs to tie SharePoint list(s) to Access as data sources. 
    This overcomplicates the model and one may very well run into synchronization issues.
    In short, although I believe there will be some people who will be happy with newly minted Access, I do not think that Access will be able to replace InfoPath and Workflow technologies.  I do agree that Microsoft does not seem to have put much energy into
    InfoPath.  If they leave a vacuum in this space, then others may very well take over, for instance Nintex Forms.

    Although I agree with the comments made by Ruven and Marc after the conference please note that those blog posts are their own personal opinions and that they don't work for Microsoft.  A lot of people have asked Microsoft to clarify the future of InfoPath
    and the response up until now has been a deafening silence.  In my opinion speculations about Access replacing InfoPath are premature.
    I should also point out that most of your comments about Access 2013 above are actually about Access Services in SharePoint Server 2013.  Access Services are NOT Access they are a shared service offering in SharePoint that convert and publish Access
    databases and forms.  As you point out once an Access database is published through Access services it is converted to SQL Server and no longer resides in Access.  Of course I don't work for Microsoft either so these are all just my personal opinion. 
    Having said that I doubt you will get the confirmation/response that you are hoping for from any official Microsoft channel.

  • How to get info about the mobile, like screensize...

    hi,
    i need some info about the device my midlet is running on.
    how is it possible to get info about the screensize, screentype(color/black) and perhaps devicetype or modelname?
    i already read it somewhere but i didn't find the source again.

    thx,
    the example below shows some basic information.
    Display myDisplay = Display.getDisplay(this);
    Displayable dis = myDisplay.getCurrent();
    int high = dis.getHeight();
    int width = dis.getWidth();
    boolean isCol = myDisplay.isColor();       
    int nubCol = myDisplay.numColors();more detailed information about model, aren't available through the standard api, on blackberry's there some restricted apis that provide these device-type and other detailed information...
    for more basic information, just look at the class-methods from display and displayable...

  • Info about the RFC

    Hi,
    I have to work on RFC FM.  Can any body give me the info about the RFC? especially for Function module?
    Will give Reward points
    regards,Ram

    Hi
    RFC (Remote Function Call) is similar to the general SAP fun module: except that in the attributes you click the radio button: RFC enabled;
    and you will be passing an Import parameter DESTINATION to it.
    Other code and usage will be similar to any fun module;
    Have a look at any fun module in SE37 to understand better about the different components of Fun modules;
    Refer this link:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/22/042518488911d189490000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    Function Modules doc
    Function Modules;
    Check this matter.
    Function Modules are Global ABAP programs created by SAP for reusable purpose.they have IMPORT,EXPORT and TABLE parameters, and EXCEPTIONS to through when error occurs.
    You can create them from TCode SE37.
    Go through the following doc:
    Function modules are cross-program, reusable procedures that are organized into function groups, and whose functions are implemented between the statements FUNCTION and ENDFUNCTION. Function modules and their interfaces are created in the Function Builder.
    Function Module Interfaces
    The parameter interface of a function module is defined in the Function Builder. It includes the definition of interface parameters and the specification of exceptions that can be triggered by a function module. The Function Builder automatically generates comment lines below the FUNCTION statement in the source code of the function module, which represent the interface of the function module with the following syntax:
    Syntax
    ... [IMPORTING parameters]
    [EXPORTING parameters]
    [CHANGING parameters]
    [TABLES table_parameters]
    [{RAISING|EXCEPTIONS} exc1 exc2 ...]
    The syntax and semantics of IMPORTING, EXPORTING, CHANGING, RAISING, and EXCEPTIONS mainly correspond to the definition of method interfaces with [CLASS-]METHODS. The additional option of defining table parameters using TABLES is obsolete.
    Interface parameters
    The interface parameters are defined on the relevant tab pages in the Function Builder.
    IMPORTING parameters are input parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input parameter. The content of the actual parameter is passed to the input parameter when the call is made. The content of an input parameter for which 'pass by reference' is defined cannot be changed in the function module.
    EXPORTING parameters are output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter can be specified for every output parameter. The content of an output parameter that is defined for 'pass by value' is transferred to the actual parameter if the function module is completed without errors. An output parameter that is defined for pass by reference is not initialized when the function module is called.
    CHANGING parameters are input and output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input or output parameter. When the function module is called, the content of the actual parameter is passed to the input/output parameter, and when the function module is completed, the content of the input/output parameter is passed to the actual parameter.
    TABLES parameters are table parameters. Table parameters are obsolete CHANGING parameters that are typed as standard tables with a header line. If an internal table without a header line or a table body is passed as an actual parameter to a formal parameter of this type, an empty local header line is generated in the function module. If an internal table with a header line is used as an actual parameter, both the table body and the header line are passed to the function module. Pass by value is not possible in formal parameters defined using TABLES. Formal parameters defined with TABLES can be replaced by formal parameters defined with CHANGING. A local work area can be created for the internal table in the function module by using the addition LIKE LINE OF itab of the DATA statement.
    Exceptions
    The exception of a function module are defined on the Exceptions tab page in the Function Builder. Here you can select exception classes to define whether class-based exceptions are declared or non-class-based exception are defined. Class-based exceptions are represented in the above syntax by RAISING, and non-class-based exceptions are represented by EXCEPTIONS.
    The addition RAISING is used to declare class-based exceptions that can be propagated from the function module to the caller. Exceptions in the categories CX_STATIC_CHECK and CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK must be explicitly declared, otherwise a propagation can lead to an interface violation. A violation of the interface leads to the treatable exception CX_SY_NO_HANDLER. Exceptions of the category CX_NO_CHECK are implicitly always declared. The declaration of exceptions of the category CX_STATIC_CHECK is statically checked in the syntax check. For exceptions of the category CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK, the check is not performed until runtime. In a function module in which class-based exceptions are declared with the RAISING addition, the statement CATCH SYSTEM-EXCEPTIONS cannot be used. Instead, the relevant treatable exceptions should be handled in a TRY control structure.
    The addition EXCEPTIONS is used to define a list of non-class-based exceptions that can be triggered in the function module using the statements RAISE or MESSAGE RAISING. Exceptions defined in this way - as with formal parameters - are bound to the function module and cannot be propagated. If an exception of this type is triggered in a function module, and no return value has been assigned to it with the homonymous addition EXCEPTIONS of the CALL FUNCTION statement when the call was made, this leads to a runtime error.
    Note
    For new developments after release 6.10, SAP recommends that you work with class-based exceptions that are independent of the function module.
    RFC is a technology which is used to access a functions (Modules) from
    the remote systems.
    If a function module is set as remote enabled which can be access from
    the remote system via RFC.Eg: U can access the Remote enabled function modules in ur VB,Webdynpro,Java,Visual composer program.
    A function module can be set as remote enabled by SE37->Go to ur FM->click the option Button "remote enabled".
    But Normal function modules can not accessd from the remote system.
    Good Example for RFC enabled function module is : BAPI(Business Application Programming Interface)
    Note: All BAPIs are Remote enabled but not all remote enabled function modules are BAPI.
    CALLING A FUNCTION MODULE:
    1)In U ABAP Editor --> Click "Patter" ---> Selection Option Button "Call Function"
    --> Write the Corresponding FM name --> Hit Enter
    2)The appropriate import ,export Parameters will be displayed in ur editor
    3)Pass the Values Here.

    Hi Neil,
    Thanks for your suggestion. I thought I tried all combinations of database, catalog and schema names and all different orders to connect, associate the connection and generate entities, but it seems I did not try this one. I did exactly what you suggest, except for the fact that I connected to the database before associating the connection to the project.
    It partially works now. I can generate Entities. Once I have generated an entity, all generated private member variables become red underlined, because table "null" for columns "xyz" could not be resolved. And the drop down box for columns in the JPA Details pane still doesn't get populated. The latter can be fixed by selecting the proper schema for the entity, which results in a @Table(schema="xyz") annotation. However, I expected this to be done automatically when the Entity was generated.
    The error about not being able to resolve the columns still exists. I tried to add a @Column(name="ASDF") annotation (because the columns names are all capital, while the member variables are lowercase), but that doesn't resolve the problem.
    I hope this gives you a clue to solve the problem!

  • About the new Pages, please.

    About the new Pages, please. I've a lot of text in the old '09 version 4.3 -- how do I go about moving it to the new Pages?

    Many thanks for your message, Peter. So glad to have your reply and impressed with all you’ve contributed to this topic here in the past.
    Guess I was hoping that by looking away long enough, things would get better. I’d put aside my book, all in Pages ’09, but now I want to finish it and to move what’s done to Scrivener. Surely there’s some better way to rescue the old stuff than a complete rewrite?
    Seems Scrivener actually uses TextEdit and that’s fine but of course I was using Pages in the first place because I’d like more control of how stuff looks on the page from the start.
    Please tell me: Without losing any text, what are the options?
    Kind regards . . . Fortes

  • What's about the future of JavaME? Java is disappearing from every mobile..

    Hi all,
    please give us some news...
    We can't continue to develop without knowing anything about oracle plans.
    Java is hardly 'disappearing from every mobile'...
    I can't belive it, java exploded into the mobile market, every mobile phones was capable to run a good midlet, and now? I'm really disappointed from the Oracle way to keep us informed on Java future... They says that Java developer have no reason to worry but what about JavaME? What about JavaFX on mobile? MIDP3 has been approved since many months now and we neither have a SDK. What about the plans to merge the JavaSE APIs with the JavaME one? I can't belive that JavaME will be kicked off in that way, too sad...

    please give us some news...Who is this addressed to? You do know (or don't you) that these forums are 'staffed' by volunteers who have no official relationship with Oracle (or Sun before that).

  • Short code causes a strange problem - About the list again -- please read!

    Hi again people. Maybe you remember my project - has a list, that you can search thru using a text field. During the work I got stuck on a strange problem ( Again :-( ) My app has one text field, one combo box, one list and a text field once more. The code should do the following ->
    *1. Load the list, no problem with that.*
    *2. Show the elements of the list, that match the selected group in the combo box,no problem.*
    *3. Search thru the list using the text field,no problem.*
    4. When the user selects an element from the list, it should display its info in the second text field. This also works fine, but when after looking at info of one of the elements the things on numbers 2 and 3 ( look up! ) stop working. I must say that everything works fine until user selects an element from the list. I couldnt understand this kind of behavior so I am asking you to help me please.

    Keith, thanks for making that readable. So here's the diagnosis -
    In the refresh() method, calling defaultListModel.clear() results in a valueChanged(...) event in which this method calldefaultListModel.getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex())results in the exception noted, as getSelectedIndex returns -1, the list being empty... you can't getElementAt(-1).
    I haven't analyzed all the code nor checked whether is now works as desired, but this small change to valueChanged counters the exception being thrown.   public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {
    infoField.setText(""); // do this unconditionally
    if (list.getSelectedIndex() != -1) {
    String value = (String)defaultListModel.getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex());
    for(int i = 0; i < numFields; i++){
    if(value.equals(matrix[0])){
    infoField.setText(matrix[i][1]);
    break;

    Yea! You were right! I didnt think that calling *list_model.clear();* will result in calling *valueChanged()* ........
    That was some *clear()* thinking :-) Thank you!

  • Info about the the performance of Q10

    Dear all , Could you please suggest me about the performance of Q10 especially about the battery life? I use my phone mostly for social networking and emails.. Thanks, Mithilesh..

    I'm a heavy user and I can't kill the battery within 12 hours.
    I also CANNOT crash the phone despite having multiple apps open simultaneously, i.e. music playing while watching YouTube videos and playing video games all at the same time. I've tried many times with no success.

  • 5000 $ for info about the "MUI" resource

    Problem: missing documents from Microsoft
    Offer: 5000 US-$ for the guy who can find the information
    Description:
    On https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms648007(v=vs.85).aspx you can find all resource formats (binary) that you need if you want
    to build an exe/dll and use them on Windows... but, they missed one... it's a new one and it only exists since Vista (maybe XP, I'm not sure... but that's not the point). The missing resource is the "MUI" resource (it's a named resource and the name
    is "MUI").
    Microsoft describes how to split resources into 2 parts (the neutral and the language specific part) which would generate such a MUI resource. The problem is, that this is not working the way they describe it (generates damaged data) and rc.exe
    has also other "incapabilities" (e.g. compiling DialogTemplate's). But without the info about how to create the MUI resource by hand, it's almost impossible to create good quality multilingual applications.
    That's why I want to offer the money to who ever is able to find this information (I guess it must be an employee of Microsoft, because I guess outside of Microsoft it's hard to find this info... maybe it's only "documented" in the source code
    of tools like rc.exe or muirct.exe).
    Contact me if you have the info... (this info cannot be classified... but if it is, it would be nice to hear an explanation of Microsoft, why an API which all of us SHOULD use according to Microsofts documents is not publicly documented).
    thanks a lot... I hope to hear from someone soon...

    just to make it clear: I'm talking about the "MUI" resource that's embedded in an multilingual exe/dll and the corresponding resource-dll (in this case it has the ending .exe.mui or .dll.mui). I'm not talking about the .mui file itself. (see
    http://rcecafe.net/?p=266 for more information or contact me if you want to get a bether explanation why it is a problem not having this information -> by the way: it has been confirmed by the Microsoft
    support team, that this is information is missing and that it is a problem for the development of MUI software -> they suggested to contact/bother the developers privately to get the information... because other possible ways to get the info that they
    could imagine, aren't legal)
