About Link Bars for Screens

Screens contain sets of information in views. These views display data in different formats. For example, you can sometimes view the same data in an explorer view, in a chart, or in a list. You access these views by clicking a link on the link bar. The link bar appears immediately below the screen tab. Figure 5 shows an example of the link bar.

Figure 5. Example of the Link Bar

The active link shows an arrow pointing to the contents of the view for the link. In Figure 5, the active link is Payer. If the link you want to use is not visible, then click the down arrow at the right end of the link bar to display and select that link. In Figure 5, the down arrow appears to the right of the Smart Calls link. When you select an additional link, the last link in the link bar is replaced with the selected link.

You can configure your Siebel application to show link bar names in tree format on the left side of your screen. For more information, see Setting Left-Hand Navigation.
