About Setting Up Siebel Clinical

This chapter lists the applications administration tasks that are specific to Siebel Clinical. Use this chapter in combination with Siebel Applications Administration Guide, the main guide for performing administrative tasks.

Siebel Applications Administration Guide covers the setup tasks that are common to all Siebel Business Applications, such as using license keys, defining employees, and defining your company's structure. It also provides the information you will need to implement, configure, and monitor the Sales, Service, and Marketing products and to perform Data Administration and Document Administration tasks.

Some tasks listed in this chapter might replace those in the administration guide whereas others might be additional tasks. Make sure you review Table 3 before following the procedures in Siebel Applications Administration Guide.

This guide assumes that you have already installed Siebel Clinical or completed an upgrade from another Siebel Business Application. If you have not, refer to the Installation/Upgrade section of the Siebel Bookshelf and click the links to the guides that are relevant to your company's implementation.

The Siebel database server installation script creates a Siebel administrator account that can be used to perform the tasks described in this guide. For information about this process, see the Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using for the operating system you are using, and Siebel System Administration Guide.

CAUTION:  Do not perform system administration functions on your local database, as it can cause data conflicts, an overly large local database, or a large number of additional transactions to route.
