Setting Up Drill-Down Destinations


Siebel Briefings allows users to drill-down on hyperlinks in Siebel Briefings views (My Briefing, Account Briefing, Competitor Briefing, and Company Briefing) to navigate to other views. For example, a user reviewing his or her opportunities listed on the My Briefing page can click the name of the opportunity and navigate to the Opportunity view.

To enable this behavior, a Siebel Briefings-specific screen contains all views that are drill-down destinations from any Siebel Briefings applet. This is a hidden screen that is not exposed to users.

If you add or modify applets to Siebel Briefings views, and you want users to be able to drill-down from the applet to another view, you must include the destination view on this screen. The name of the screen is SI Drilldown Destinations Screen. See Using Siebel Tools and Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using for information on how to include the destination view to the Briefings screen.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring Siebel Briefings.

  • The source applet must be based on one of these specialized frame classes:
