Visibility Control for Find


Find operations within Siebel applications are instituted in the following ways:

  • Position visibility: This view displays data associated with the user's logged on ID. This view displays only those records to which the logged-on user has Team visibility— that is, account records in which the user's positions appears in the team multi-value group.
  • Team visibility: This view displays only those records to which the logged-on user has Manager visibility—that is, records from which the primary position on the account team is the logged-on manager's direct or indirect subordinate.
  • Organizational visibility: This view displays data associated with the same organization to which the logged on user's position belongs.

Each view within Find has a certain visibility to which it is associated. These views are listed in order as part of the find object. When a user invokes a Find operation, the system scans the views from top to bottom until it finds a view to which the user has visibility. The visibility used for this view will be applied to the Find result set.
