Requirement:
The requirement is to read the XML file from a local drive and read the property sets to perform the following actions:–
1. Count the number of Parent’s in the XML.
2. Count the number of child’s BC associated to each parent.
3. Extract a property of a parent.
4. Extract a property from a child under a parent.

1. In Siebel Tools, create a new Custom Business Service and write the below code in PreInvokeMethod Event
GetParentAccount – CustomMethod name invoked in the Business Service.
