Changing the Label Information Displayed on the Dispatch Board


This task is a step in Process of Setting Up the Dispatch Board.

By default, activities are displayed in the Dispatch Board Gantt chart. You may need to change the text to show other information needed for decision-making.

In the following example procedure, the Gantt chart is configured to display account names instead of activities.

See Using Siebel Tools for more information on performing configuration tasks with Siebel Tools.
