Migrating Help


You can update the online help with customized information contained in your help system from a previous Siebel release by using the Siebel topic files included with your Siebel eBusiness Applications.

To update the Siebel HTML file with information from a customized HTML file

  1. Find the name of the HTML file to update and open the file.

    See Customer Applications Files for a complete list of files.

  2. Open the HTML file used to create help content in the previous version.

    If you used the Siebel filename in earlier releases, the filename would be Siebel_eBusiness_Help.htm.

  3. Use copy and paste functionality to update the Siebel HTML file.
  4. Apply appropriate HTML tags to format content and save the HTML file.

    NOTE:  If a redirect tag exists in the file, be sure to remove the tag. The following is an example of a redirect tag:
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="1; URL=siebwelcome.htm"> 

  5. Test your changes and update the HTML file on the Siebel Server.

    For more information, see Testing and Distributing Changes.
