Registering a New View
This task is a step in Process of Modifying Siebel Objects. If you add a new view to a Siebel application, then you must make it visible in the Siebel application before you can test it. If you work with a predefined view, then it is not necessary to register the view. A predefined view is already registered. You typically do not modify or delete a record for a view that is already registered. You only modify a view record if you change the view name. To restrict access to a view, it is recommended that you not assign any responsibilities to the view rather than deleting the view. To register a new view
- Register the new view:
- Open the Siebel client, navigate to the Administration - Application screen, and then the Views view.
You must open the client for a Siebel employee application, such as Siebel Call Center or Siebel Sales. You cannot register a view in Siebel Partner Portal because Siebel CRM does not display the administrative views you must use to register a view.
- In the View list, click New.
- In the View Name field, click the select button.
- In The View dialog box, choose the new view, and then click OK.
- Enter a description.
- Make sure the Default Local Access option contains a check mark.
This option makes the view available in the Siebel Mobile Web Client.
- Save the record.
- Associate the new view with a responsibility:
- Click the Responsibilities link.
- In the Responsibilities list, locate the responsibility to which you must associate the view.
You cannot add a new view to a responsibility that is part of the seed data that ships with the product. To associate a new view with a responsibility, you must do one of the following:
- Create a new responsibility.
- Use an administrative responsibility, such as Administrator.
- Copy a predefined responsibility, such as Siebel Administrator, and then add the new view to the copy.
- In the Views list, click New.
- In the Add Views dialog box, choose the new view you must register, and then click OK.
Siebel CRM associates the view with the responsibility. If a user who is assigned the responsibility logs in to the Siebel application, then Siebel CRM displays the view in the Siebel client. For more information, see Creating Responsibilities.
