The Siebel eScript language allows developers to extend the Siebel CRM application logic with custom scripts. Siebel Tools provides a scripting environment for the Application, Applet, Business Component, and Business Service object types.

In this chapter, we learned how to initialize the scripting environment in Siebel Tools and what event handlers and methods are available for scripting.

A short case study scenario demonstrated how to create a custom business service and how to debug it.

In the next chapter, we will discuss advanced aspects of Siebel scripting such as browser scripting, tracing, and performance considerations.
