About Visibility Enhancements in Siebel PRM

---

Visibility is important to Siebel PRM, because it is used to facilitate collaboration between partners and other partners or the brand owner.

In order to preserve the privacy of each company's data, partners do not have visibility to all records associated with certain business components, only to the records in their organization.

For example, in other Siebel applications, if you navigate to the Accounts screen, select an Account record, and then click the Contacts view tab, you will see all the contacts that are associated with that account. In the Siebel Partner Portal, the partner will see contacts associated with the Account only if they are in the partner's organization.

This visibility capability applies to information in the following views in the Siebel Partner Portal:

Opportunity screen: Contacts, Quotes, Revenues, Products, Activities
Account screen: Opportunity, Quotes, Orders, Revenues, Activities

Siebel PRM also has enhancements that allow partners to collaborate with other partner companies by assigning data to positions or organizations in other partner companies. For more information, see Partner-to-Partner Collaboration.

If your business model requires other visibility enhancements beyond these, you can configure visibility using the methods in the following sections.
