Scripting is one of the most important areas in Siebel Development but irony is that it is never recommended to write script in Siebel. Siebel scripting is done in a language known as eScript. eScript shares it’s syntax with JavaScript. If you have worked in JavaScript then you would find it pretty easy to adapt to eScript.
eScript can be broadly classified into two categories
Server Scripts: as its name suggests is executed on server side. Which means that the user request is sent to server where the scripts is then executed
Browser Script: is actually converted into JavaScript and is executed on client side.
Usually scripting is written on objects in Siebel such as Applets, Business Components etc. But the main use of eScript is done to writeBusiness Services. There are lots of things that you achieve through a business service. Detail discussion on business service is subject to different post but it is similar to somewhat workflows implementing complete business processes with the help of script.
Scripting should be used as a last resort. Everything can be done through script of course but it makes the manageability and up gradation of Application difficult.
