Keyboard Shortcuts


You can use keyboard shortcuts to invoke commands and navigate in your Siebel application. They are available in both basic and extended mode.

Basic mode. You can use only keyboard shortcuts that are not used by the Web browser in which your Siebel application runs, and you cannot use special keys in the shortcut, such as function and arrow keys.

Extended mode. There are no limitations on the keys used in the keyboard shortcuts. This is the default mode.

For more information about basic mode and extended mode, see Modes of Operation.

The shortcuts in Table 24 are shown according to the actions they perform. The context column indicates where in the application each action would be used. Keyboard shortcuts are based on application context. If the corresponding command is not available in the application, the shortcut is not active.
