User Preferences and Siebel Clients

---

Preferences that Siebel users specify, such as those in the User Preferences screen, accessed from the View menu, are saved to the client or server machine, depending on which type of client is being used:

For users on Siebel Mobile or Dedicated Web Client, user preferences are saved by default on the local client machine.

By default, user preference data is saved in the SIEBEL_CLIENT_ROOT\bin directory. A different location for this data, including a network location, can be specified by specifying a value for the optional configuration parameter SharedModeUsersDir. For more information, see Siebel Application Parameters for Client.

For users on Siebel Web Client, user preferences are saved on the Siebel Server.

By default, user preference data is saved in the UserPref subdirectory under the directory containing the Siebel File System. A different location for this data can be specified on the Siebel Server or Application Object Manager level by modifying the value of the configuration parameter SharedModeUsersDir.

User preference filenames are in the form user_ID&Siebel_appname.spf—for example, SADMIN&Siebel Universal Agent.spf for the user SADMIN running Siebel Call Center.
