Removing Views from a Screen

This task is a step in Process of Configuring the User Interface Layer.

Each screen in a Siebel application includes a set of views. The screen view object type is a child of the screen object type, and it creates an association between a view and a screen. Siebel CRM displays views in the Siebel client below the screen tabs. Some views include data or contain functionality that NREC does not require. For example, NREC does not require certain views that are associated with the Opportunities Screen, such as Attachments, Presentations, Proposals, Quotes, and Sales Teams. To remove these views in the NREC example, you make sure the Inactive property for each view contains a check mark.

To remove a view from a Siebel application, you can also do one of the following:

• Create a responsibility for NREC that includes only the views that NREC requires. For more information, see Creating Responsibilities.
• Use Siebel Personalization to display or hide views according to user profile attributes. For more information, see Siebel Personalization Administration Guide.
