Users Receive Too Much News


If the amount of news and data that is published on a regular basis in Oracle's Siebel Briefings becomes too large, you can change the number of days that news and data are published by changing the argument values in the Integration Administration > Symbolic URL view. This decreases the amount of information by removing older items.

The number of days for which articles are published is controlled by the HIST argument value in content agents. The following table provides an example.

Symbolic URL Name

The default setting for HIST is 90 days.

You can also change the number of articles that are displayed. The number of articles displayed is controlled by the MAX argument value in content agents. The following table provides an example.

If users find that they are receiving news and information about too many accounts or competitors, they can reduce their list of tracked accounts and competitors by modifying their tracking profile. Users can also set their preferences for the number of articles displayed and order in which they appear using the My News Topic view.
