Workspace issues in Siebel 20.3

Hi there ! Long time, no post, no see, eh ? As it turns out, a pandemic filled year leaves one no free time. 

After losing track in lower versions of the trusted Siebel CRM , I have now had the chance to work on an upgraded version. Siebel 20.3. Work started earlier this year, with a massive upgrade on my customer's systems.

And I must say, I am impressed. But also frustrated. 

The new workspace system fixes some of the issues in an earlier checkin/checkout system, but it opens up a whole bunch of new ones.

Like, you have to choose which workspace to merge into, at the time of creation, not at the time of delivery. Strange.

Also, you can't checkin the same workspace to more than one delivery branch. The only way I know to do this is to take SIF backups, and check them into a new workspace under a different branch.

But the one that frustrates the most...is that...there are still some tools objects that do not stay inside workspaces. 

Like Tasks. Of the famous Task Based UIs.

And ...get this...Tables !

These two objects, when modified, or created, immediately get delivered to the main branch !!

Currently, the following object types and their child objects remain as non-workspace objects:
    Table
    Dock Object
    EIM Interface Table
    Repository
    Workflow Policy Column
    Workflow Policy Object
    Workflow Policy Program
    Task
    Task Group
    Project

Now, I am on 20.3 version, so some of these might have been fixed on a newer version. But we are going to be on this version for a while longer so...

...need more coffee.
