Managing Disclaimers

There are two types of disclaimers as follows:

• Static disclaimers: The Disclaimer Management view shows the static disclaimer information that appears in the LS Pharma Call Signature Form Applet (in Siebel Pharma) or the Siebel Signature Capture display (in Siebel Pharma Handheld).
• Dynamic disclaimers: Dynamic disclaimers control disclaimer text during signature capture based on a number of parameters, such as physican type, state where the sampling is being done, and the sample.
