Delegated Communication Administration
Delegated communication administration uses two screens, the Communication Administration screen and the Communication Profile view of the User Profile screen.
The Partner Portal's Communication Administration screen allows the delegated administrator to view communications drivers, such as the drivers used for email. Each driver has parameters, which specify how it behaves. For example, the parameters for an email driver may allow the administrator to choose whether the message will be in plain text, whether the From address is required, whether messages are deleted after being processed, and other parameters.
The drivers and parameters in the Communication Administration screen are set by the brand owner, and they are read-only in the Partner Portal.
After these drivers have been set up, the Partner Portal's User Profile screen allows the delegated administrator to associate drivers with partner employees, to specify which drivers each employee uses.
In the User Profile screen, the delegated administrator can also override the default parameters for individual users. For example, for an email driver, the parameter set in the Communication Administration screen may specify that all messages are plain text. In the User Profile screen, the administrator may override this for specific users to allow them to view HTML messages.
For more information about communication administration, see Siebel Communications Server Administration Guide.
