This guide describes how to use the Interactive Designer API to customize eAdvisor and browser-based eConfigurator applications. These applications are intended for users who need to configure products, to create quotes, or to purchase products from Siebel customer and partner application Web sites.

Although job titles and duties at your company may differ from those listed below, the audience for this guide consists of users in the following category:

All users should have detailed knowledge of their company's products and how they are sold. Before using Interactive Designer, you should also be familiar with the Siebel eBusiness Applications user interface and its basic operations. You should know how to accomplish basic tasks such as navigating between screens and views, selecting from lists, and entering information.

If you will be publishing configuration models on the Web, you should also be familiar with Siebel customer and partner applications, particularly the catalog views in Siebel eSales. For more information on how Interactive Designer fits into Siebel Interactive Selling, and additional applications you may need to understand, see the Overview chapter in Siebel Interactive Designer Administration Guide.
