Where are my Siebel Business Services?

Question

Hi,

in Siebel I can create Business Services at 2 locations:

1. Siebel Client
2. Siebel Tools

In the Siebel Client I cannot see the Business Services created in Siebel Tools, and vice versa. (After creating a new Business Service in Siebel Tools, I compiled it - no errors reported - and ran the client with "Debug" from the Siebel Tools menu.)

Do you know, why?

Thanks!

Edit: I use the Sample data base, I did not check in or check out anything. I am not comfortable with the deployment process yet and just digging through the docs.

If you wrote the business service using server script, then the business service will be compiled into the SRF. There will be no physical files outside of the SRF itself, and it will not show up in the Siebel client.

If you wrote the business service using browser script, then the business service will be converted to an external .js file and dropped in whatever your script directory. The script directory is specified in Tools or in the genbscript command-line utility.

Hope this helps.
