Assigning a Category and Type to Siebel Chart Views

Environments: Development environment only.

Platforms: Windows, UNIX, IBM z/OS.

Reputility log section: Issue 4: Chart Views Needing Migration to Aggregate Type.

The Chart menu item displays as one of the aggregate categories under the view tabs. To ensure that the Chart menu item is located correctly, all the relevant charts for a view must be assigned to the same Aggregate Category. Also, each chart view must be of type Aggregate View. If the chart view is not of type Aggregate View, then the chart menu item displays as a view tab.

The postmerge utilities review the repository and verify that Chart views have been defined correctly. The reputility log lists the screen views that require revision. Review the reputility log section cited at the start of this topic and make the necessary revisions.

The log is located here:

$SIEBEL_HOME\reppatch\log\reputility.log
