Siebel Enterprise Integration Manager (EIM) is a server component in the Siebel EAI component group which manages the bidirectional exchange of data between the Siebel database and other corporate data sources. This exchange of information is accomplished through intermediary tables called EIM tables. (In earlier releases, EIM tables were known as interface tables.) The EIM tables act as a staging area between the Siebel application database and other data sources.

EIM is your primary method of loading mass quantities of data into the Siebel database. You should use EIM to perform bulk imports, updates, merges, and deletes of data.

EIM reads a configuration file that specifies the EIM process to perform (import, update, merge, delete, or export) using the appropriate parameters. The EIM configuration file is an ASCII text file of extension type .IFB.
