About Siebel Find Operations

A Siebel Find operation consists of a direct query on a database, and allows users to query on a field-by-field basis. Find objects are accessible through the Search Center, and allow users to perform queries on specific predefined fields linked to specific business components (such as querying for a name in the Last Name field). Find results are a real-time reflection of database records. This makes Find appropriate for searching on transactional database records that change frequently, such as Activity or Opportunity records. Find operations are case sensitive.

NOTE:  The Siebel Query tool is covered in Siebel Fundamentals on the Siebel Bookshelf. The Siebel Bookshelf is published on Oracle Technology Network (OTN) and Oracle E-Delivery.
