Adding Attachments to Web Offers - Downloads List


The Web Offer Downloads list displays literature and other files that can be downloaded in conjunction with the offer. Literature items must be included in the literature list to be available for selection in this view.

The Downloads list shows files that can be included in the selected Web offer for download. Any literature other than offer templates can be included in an offer as a download.

The fields in this view are shown in Table 54.

Files added her e are not automatically available for downloading. In this view, you select a set of files that you want to be able to include as downloads from your Web offer. These files then appear in the Personalization Elements list of embeddable objects in the Edit Web Offer form when you select the Downloads category from the Personalization Categories list.

You can select any file from that list and copy it into the template file and that file will be available for downloading. These files are displayed in the Embedded Object list as [Download:Literature Item Name].

When the Siebel Marketing software encodes this tag, it uses the Literature Item Name as the hyperlink text. The marketer can override this default behavior by using the wildcard (*) functionality and manually defining the HREF link, as described in Using Hyperlinks (HREF) in an Offer Template.
