Associating People and Accounts with Projects


Employees. Employees in Siebel eClinical can be given access to the project and added to the team workbook.

Contacts. Contacts can be associated with projects through the Contacts view, the Organizational Analysis view, and the Clinical Contacts view. The same contacts appear in the Contacts view and the Organizational Analysis view.

Accounts. Accounts can be associated with projects through the Partners view, the Subcontractors view and the Clinical Contacts view. Adding accounts to the Subcontractors view allows you to add employees from the subcontracting accounts to the project's team workbook. (For more information about adding subcontractors, see Siebel Professional Services Automation Guide.)
