Setting Up a New Siebel Remote User

Setting up a mobile Web client involves certain tasks for both the Siebel Remote server and the mobile Web client. The administrator must repeat each of these steps for each mobile client.

An administrator at NREC completed the entire process of setting up each mobile client. NREC decided not to rely on end users to complete the configuration because the administrator could be more thorough and accurate in completing each task.

Setting up a new Siebel Remote user entails the following tasks.

1. Create a mobile Web client user account and privileges. For details, read Creating a Mobile Web Client User Account and Privileges.
2. Set up mobile Web client hardware and software. For details, read Setting Up Mobile Client Hardware and Software.
