Defining a Specialty


The Siebel administrator defines medical specialties within Siebel Life Sciences using the Applications Administration, Specialty view.

The Primary Specialty field is read-only for end users and can be edited only from the Data Administration, Contacts view. To specify a contact's primary specialty, see the next procedure.
