1. Introduction

Oracle Fusion Middleware provides a wide set of capabilities to enable, manage, and integrate servic

events across Siebel CRM and all other services and applications that may exist in your company

OracleAS Integration provides a unique design time experience for easy-to-use and rapid configura

Adapters. The tool has built-in support for introspecting the EIS application metadata and to automenerate the metadata for Adapter Services. Users can browse or search for specific EIS interfaces, bu

objects and operations.

The Adapter for Siebel provides comprehensive, bi-directional, standards-based, real-time connect

ebel 8 application systems. The Adapter supports both JCA and Web Service standards for creation o

and reusable service-oriented applications (SOA). The Adapter provides an easy-to-use, robust, snnectivity platform to non-intrusively access and expose the critical business logic and data contain

Siebel for building an integrated enterprise.

The Oracle AS Adapter provides bi-directional connectivity to Siebel. It uses the Siebel COM and Javan API to synchronously invoke Siebel transactions - Siebel Business Objects and Business Services.

ebels robust EAI framework to asynchronously receive events from Siebel in the form of Siebel Inte

ects. It supports more than one way of receiving events from the Siebel application namely Files, HTQSeries and ensures guaranteed delivery of Siebel events. It translates Siebel native data to standa

ormat and back. The following diagram explains the communication between Siebel and OracleAS A

2. Overview

In this article we first create a Web service from a Siebel Call Center 7.8 and we take a Siebel Bus

to generate a WSDL file, which can be used in Oracle BPEL process to connect to Siebel Account tOracle Siebel Adapter service.

you use Web services as your business service technology, model information will be exposed to thand controller layers through ADF data control interfaces implemented by thin, Oracle-provided a

lasses. We use the direct web services for integration and finally demonstrate on how to use BPEL P

Manager to consume a Siebel generated WSDL to invoke an inbound Siebel Account Web Service tOracle ADF to generate an account in Siebel.

3. Scenario

The process starts with consuming a prepared Siebel Business Service through the Administratio

nctionality from Siebel Thin Client, and expose it as an inbound Web service. After adding operations

inbound Web service, we generate a WSDL file.

xt we perform Web Service Data Control form JDeveloper to interact with the Web service that is gen

and provide the operations for data control to build the required JSF pages using Oracle ADF. The opwithin WSDL files are used to create the data control and exposes the Siebel Account details.

From the JDeveloper IDE we create two JSF pages to handle QueryByID operation from the availab

control, and the other JSF page to return details based on the ID given in the query page to returdetails from the Siebel Customer Account.

The Web service (i.e. WSDL) form Siebel is deployed into Oracle SOA Suite and invoked from BPEL c

create a data control based on the running Web service and create a JSF page using the data contr

b service allows us to create a new customer and returns the Customer ID provided for this new cus

4. Prerequisites

This guide assumes that: You have installed Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.1).You have installed Oracle JDeveloper 10g. (10.1.3.4). You have access to Siebel Call Center 7.8. You have installed and configured Oracle Siebel Adapter through Application Explorer from Or10g Adapters.

5. Development Steps

Go to Oracle Siebel Call Center 7.8 login page and login with the defined credentials.

On the Home page click on Site Mapicon.

In the Accounts Home page click on Accounts link.



4/24

On Administration -Web Services page click on Inbound Web Services and navigate to the Siebel CustomAccount under Name tab.

Double click on Siebel Customer Account to view the Service Ports



5/24

Note down the Address for CustAccount and the type ofTransport protocol used (HTTP) under Servic

Ports

For Example:tp:/localhost:8081/eai_enu/start.swe?SWEExtSource=WebService&SWEExtCmd=Execute&UserNam

MIN&Password=



6/24

Create the above shown Operations for Insert, QuerById, QueryByExample and set the Authentication t

to None. Go to Menu and click on Save Record under Operations, Service Ports and Inbound Web

Services tab for the changes to take effect.

Click on Generate WSDL button to save the WSDL file on to your system.

The generated xml file is displayed in your browser.

Save the file as SiebelWS.wsdl on your local system. This file is used later in the BPEL process.



7/24

Create A Web Service Data Control:

Now we use Oracle JDeveloper 10.1.3.4 and ADF (Application Development Framework) compone

develop a Web application with Siebel Call Center 7.8. We use the created Web service (SiebelWS.wsda Siebel Call Center application as a data control for the JSF pages. Here the data from Siebel applic

used to build a JSP user interfaces using Oracle ADF.

Start JDeveloper and create a new application as shown below



8/24

Name the project to DataControl.

Right click on DataControl to create a new WebService Data Control

Select Web Service Data Control under Web Services



9/24

In the Create Web Service Data Control wizard, click Next to skip the Welcome page.

In Step 1, type SiebelWS as the name for this data control.

xt step shows the operations available: select CustAccount and use the Add button to shuttle the selecthe Selected pane for QueryById.



10/24

click Finish to create the data control.

In the Applications Navigator, expand the nodes that now exist and review the new entries that havcreated. The Applications Navigator should look like this:

Click the save all icon to save the workspace.

Creating an user interface:

Now we create a second project for the JSF views.

n the Applications Navigator, right-click the Siebel_OracleAS_Integration node and select New Proje

the context menu.

Select an Empty Project in Projects.

Name the project as WebInterface.

Click the save all icon to save your work.
