EAI Value Maps: By, Suhas Rai Sharath Lagvankar

This document provides an overview of EAI value maps in Siebel, which correlate Siebel data values with external data values. It describes the functions for looking up value maps (EAIGetValueMap, EAILookupSiebel, EAILookupExternal) and the CSSEAIValueMap translate method. It also outlines how to create and use value maps, including navigating to the EAI Value Maps screen in the administration module and populating the Siebel and external system values based on the direction.

Value column or in the External System Value
column, depending on the value of the type.

inbound direction that has the external value
matching the value in the [].

that lookup will be based on]).
Ex:
EAILookupSiebel("Jurisdiction State NWCS",
([Jurisdiction State NWCS]),"")
EAILookupExternal Search Function
This function returns an EAI Value Map, with
outbound direction that has the Siebel value
matching the value in the [].

General Format:
EAILookupExternal ("EAI Value Type",[Source
field that lookup will be based on])
Ex:
EAILookupExternal ("Jurisdiction State NWCS",
([Jurisdiction State NWCS]),"")
