• Server task that manages exchange of data between external data in interface tables and user data in base tables
• EIM reads a configuration file to determine: - Whether data should be imported, merged, deleted,or exported. - Which interface table(s) and base table(s) are used and affected.
• User key column mappings in interface tables are used to resolve ROW_IDs for base tables, maintaining referential integrity
•You cannot use SQL to populate user data in base tables

Recommended Import Order Continued….13 Fulfillment14 Marketing Campaigns15 CPG Promotion Management16 CPG Product Movement17 Service Requests18 Product Defects19 Activities and Appointments20 Notes21 File Attachments
Required Initial Values for Special Columns
Each row to be imported must contain the data you want to import and theappropriate values in the following columns:
ROW_ID. This value, in combination with the nonempty contents of IF_ROW_BATCH_NUM, must yield a unique value.
IF_ROW_BATCH_NUM. Set this value to an identifying number for all rows to beprocessed as a batch.
IF_ROW_STAT. In each row to be imported, set this column to FOR_IMPORT toindicate that the row has not been imported.
Enterprise Integration Manager (EIMEnterprise Integration Manager (EIM))
By Sukesh TokshiyaBy Sukesh Tokshiya
Import Process Continued……….
•Updating record Using EIM process.
•EIM table should be populated with proper User keys to Update Base table records.
•EIM table column is having value in it which is different from base table then and then only the base table value will be Updated.
•If EIM table column is having NULL value it will not affect the Base Table column.
•If we want to update base table with NULL value we have to use NET Change parameter
•User Key Values in Base table Column cannot be Updated ( Exception with some base table as new EIM table Introduced Specifically for updating User Keys).
•Insert and Update of Base table can be achieved by Specifying the proper Parameters in configuration file (IFB).
Enterprise Integration Manager (EIMEnterprise Integration Manager (EIM))
Export Process• Export Process is basically meant for exporting the data from base table into and populating the EIM tables.
• Exported data can be copied into Other data bases
• Preserved Column Values - The values for the LAST_UPD and CREATED columns in the interface tables will always contain the values for the LAST_UPD and CREATED columns from the targetbase table.
You can verify export results by checking IF_ROW_BATCH_NUMequals to the batch number for the export.
The value of IF_ROW_STAT should be EXPORTED.
Enterprise Integration Manager (EIMEnterprise Integration Manager (EIM))
Delete Process•To delete any record from SIEBEL we will delete the record by using SIEBEL DELETE process.
•EIM initializes the interface tables for deletion.
•It applies filter logic to select rows for deleting, insert interface tables rows that correspond to matching base table rows, or select rows with matching user keys in the interface tables.
•EIM updates other tables with rows containing foreign keys that point to newly deleted rows.
•Deletion process will delete/Update the corresponding record/s from tables where the row_id of record is referred as foreign Key
Enterprise Integration Manager (EIMEnterprise Integration Manager (EIM))
By Sukesh TokshiyaBy Sukesh Tokshiya
Deletion Methods Supported
EIM uses a combination of interface table row contents and configuration file parameter values to determine the method for selecting rows to be deleted. The following methods are supported:
Delete rows in a SIEBEL base table with user key values specified in thecorresponding interface table.
Delete rows in the base table where the contents of a named column match those specified by a WHERE clause expression in the configuration file.
Delete all rows in the base table regardless of interface table row contents or configuration file WHERE clause expressions.
Caution: Do not use EIM to delete organizations. Using EIM to delete data from the Products base tables is also not recommended and can lead to inadvertent data integrity loss.
Delete Process Continued……….
Enterprise Integration Manager (EIMEnterprise Integration Manager (EIM))
Merge Process•Merge process is basically meant for Merging two records.
•During Merge Process Identity the Parent record and Child records.
•All the references (row_id) of Child records will be replaced by parent record and Child records will be deleted.
While Populating the EIM ,IF_ROW_MERGE_ID is used to distinguish between parent and child records by EIM process.
•For Parent Record IF_ROW_MERGE_ID is kept NULL and for Child record the row_id (EIM tables) of parent is populated.
•Can be used only two merge data from primary base table and not the secondary tables.

EIM Column Mappings EIM Column Mappings
•Column Mapping is very Important process for designing EIM Solution.
•Determine the Entity which it is going to affect.
•Identify the INPUT column , corresponding EIM and Base Table and column it is going to affect.
•Identify the Intersection table ( if needed) for incoming data to be loaded.
•Identify the User key Values from INPUT file required to populate the EIM tables.
•Determine the column required for visibility of records and populate the values in it.
•Prepare a EXCEL document once you have identified the Mappings.

Error Handling in EIMError Handling in EIM
Common Errors and Resolution
IF_ROW_STAT Indicates Resolution
IN_PROGRESS Integration Manager sets IF_ROW_STAT to this initial value for all rows in the batch. If rows still have this status value after Integration Manager exits, a failure occurred that aborted processing for this table.
One possible reason may be that an extension column in the Base table that the EIM table maps to does not exist.Another reason may be that there is insufficient space in the Siebel Server for the generation of LOG files.
SQL_ERROR A SQL error occurred during an attempt to import this row. This error occurs for rows processed when transaction logging isTRUE.
In this case, the SQL statement that failed execution is logged in the EIM log file. This statement can be analyzed to deduce the specific error.
Error Handling in EIMError Handling in EIMCommon Errors and Resolution continued …
IF_ROW_STAT Indicates Resolution
IMPORT_REJECTED A user-specified filter query failed for this row.
The query specified using the FILTER QUERY parameter needs to be analyzed and corrected. The query expression should be a self-contained WHERE clause expression (without the WHERE keyword) and should use only unqualified column names from the interface table or literal values (such as NAME IS NOT NULL).
FOREIGN_KEY A required foreign key column in the target table could not be resolved.
One reason could be that all the columns in the EIM table that map to the foreign key in the base table have not been populated. Another reason could be that the EIM table columns mapping to the foreign key column, resolve into a ROW_ID that is non-existent in the Foreign Key table.
PICKLIST_VALUES A required pick list value in the target table could not be resolved. This error occurs for NULL or invalid bounded pick list values.
The error could be resolved by ensuring that a pick list exists for the column that is LOV bounded. The value being imported for this column corresponds to one of the values in the pick list.
By Sukesh TokshiyaBy Sukesh Tokshiya
Error Handling in EIMError Handling in EIMIF_ROW_STAT Indicates Resolution
REQUIRED_COLS One or more required columns for the target table were NULL.
Before running the EIM, it should be ensured that the required columns in the base table(s)are being populated. Even if these columns are not specified in the EIM table, they could be defaulted to specific values using the DEFAULT or FIXED COLUMN parameters in the IFB file.
DUP_RECORD_EXISTS The row exactly matches rows that already exist in the destination tables.This error can also occur when the same record (same user key) exists with the same EIM batch number with a lower ROW_ID. In this case, MIN (ROW_ID) is the record processed, and the other records with the same user key are marked as DUP_RECORD_EXISTS.
It should be ensured that in the EIM table, records with the same batch number have distinct unique key combinations.
PARTIALLY_IMPORTED The row did not fail for the target table (although it may have been a duplicate), but did fail during processing of a secondary base table. This status is set after the import has completed.
In case, a parent-child relationship exists between the target table and the secondary base table, the user keys mapping to the Foreign Key column in the Child table referencing the Parent table must be populated in the EIM table in exactly the same way in which the user key columns resolving to ROW_ID of the parent table are populated.
By Sukesh TokshiyaBy Sukesh Tokshiya
IF_ROW_STAT Indicates Resolution
DUP_RECORD_IN_EIM_TBL Indicates that there are 2 or more interface records having the same user key values.
To avoid this situation, analyze the input records before beginning the EIM task. If you find duplicate records, you can either combine them into one record, or specify a different batch number for the duplicate record. 4
NON_UNIQE_UKEYS This error occurs if there is more than one USERKEY, say <<Basetable name_U1>>, <<Basetable name_U2>>, etc. defined on a base table. The particular EIM table being used to populate the base table uses the second USERKEY but the user has populated EIM columns corresponding to the columns of the first USERKEY
It is necessary to identify the particular USERKEY that the EIM table uses and populate columns mapping to that USERKEY uniquely.5
AMBIGUOUS This error is usually encountered when there are some columns in the Base table, other than the unique key columns, which also need to be uniquely populated for each record. This is because of unique index database constraint defined on these columns. This error is also encountered when attempting to run DELETE or MERGE processes on records in the base table with same unique keys but different conflict_ids.
The workaround is to identify all the column combinations in the base table, which participate in the different unique index constraints defined on it, and populate each combination uniquely. 6

•S_PARTY Table. S_PARTY table has been introduced into SIEBEL Data Model inSIEBEL 7. The S_PARTY table is the target base table, while S_ORG_EXT.S_CONTACT, S_USER, and S_POSTN now become extension tables of theS_PARTY table. The S_EMPLOYEE table is obsolete in version SIEBEL 7. Theseschema changes have a direct effect on EIM behavior.
•MISC SQL Parameter. SIEBEL 7 introduces a new parameter, MISC SQL. This isused to set certain Primary Child Foreign Keys, such asS_CONTACT.PR_OU_ADDR_ID and S_POSTN.PR_EMP_ID. When using MISCSQL in SIEBEL 7 to set Primary Child Foreign Keys, EIM does NOT log anytransactions for mobile users. This parameter should only be used for initial dataloading. For more information, see “Header and Process Parameters”.
•utleimdiff.exe Utility. The Siebel data model changes from release to release.Schema changes have an effect on EIM behavior. Use the utleimdiff utility to finddifferences in all interface tables between two repositories. It also generates aselective report of the EIM tables. The results can be used to help you prepareinterface tables for EIM data loading.

• Previously you could not delete from the S_NOTE* and S_*_SKILL_IT tables because they did not have a primary user key. Now you can delete records from S_NOTE* and S_*_SKILL_IT tables without deleting records from the parent tables using EIM_NOTE_DEL and EIM_SKLI_DEL, respectively.
•Delete and Merge performance is improved if you create some specifictemporary indexes first.
•Oracle INSERT APPEND MODE. This new parameter helps avoid deadlockswhen running parallel EIM processes.
•ATTACHMENT DIRECTORY. Specifies the directory to be used for importingattachments.
•CASCADE DELETE ONLY. This new parameter determines how child records arehandled when the parent record is deleted.
•EIM SCHEMA CACHE. This caches the column relations.

•EIM Table Mapping Wizard. SIEBEL Tools includes an EIM Table Mapping wizardto assist in adding extensions to the Data Model:
• Add new customer columns to existing SIEBEL tables.• Add new extension tables.• Add new intersection tables.
•EIM_PROD_INT_UK. EIM_PROD_INT_UK in SIEBEL 7 can be used to update userkey columns in S_PROD_INT, such as NAME and VENDR_OU_ID.INTEGRATION_ID is an alternative user key in S_PROD_INT. The EIM engineuses this new user key to update traditional user key columns.
•LOG TRANSACTIONS TO FILE. SIEBEL 7 introduces a new parameter, LOGTRANSACTIONS TO FILE. EIM now logs transactions into DX files stored in theFile_System\EIM directory. A marker transaction is created in theS_DOCK_TXN_LOG table. For more information, see “Header Parameters”
•DELETE MATCHES and EXPORT MATCHES Behavior Changed. The behavior of theseparameters has changed as part of the new S_PARTY model. These parameterscan now affect extension tables. These parameters also have a new argument.
