Setting System Privileges


After a system is registered (see Registering Systems Connected to Siebel Master Data Applications for information on registering a system), administrators can set privileges for this system, which allows grant access to Siebel Master Data Applications. For example, a system may allow insert, update, and query privileges on Contact records, but not allow the privilege of deleting the contact. Privileges are granted on the Business Objects layer.

To set a system's privileges

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Universal Customer Master screen.
  2. In the Systems Registrations list, select the system of interest.
  3. From the link bar, select System Privileges.

    The System Detail form and System Privileges view appear.

  4. In the System Privileges view, click New.
  5. Enter the appropriate information in the available fields to define the privileges for each object in the system.

    Use Table 23 for information on each of the fields.

The configuration in Figure 10 indicates that the system registered with the name Example has query, insert, and update privileges for the Account business object. However, it is not allowed to delete any of the Account records in the Siebel Universal Customer Master Application. Furthermore, it is set to subscribe to record changes for the Account business object.
