About Screens

Information in the Siebel application is organized into screens. You access a screen by clicking the Side Menu icon (shown in Figure 3-1) on the application banner, and then clicking the appropriate screen name, such as Opportunities, Calendar, or Accounts, from the list that appears. The name of the active screen appears in a different color than the color for the other screen names in the list.

You can also use the Site Map to navigate to a screen. If you select from the Site Map a screen name that does not appear in the screen list for the Side Menu, then the screen name appears in the screen list when you navigate to that screen. This screen is visible only for the current session. For more information, see "Using the Site Map".

You can configure your Siebel application to show the names for screens in tab format across the top of the screen or in a tree format on the left side of the screen. For more information, see "Setting Navigation Options".

You can specify the screens that appear in the Siebel application. For more information, see "Showing, Hiding, and Reordering Screens or Views".

Icons appear next to screen names. A Siebel administrator can change these icons in Siebel Tools. If you do not want to display these icons, then contact your Siebel administrator.
