About the Demo Application

If your organization has set up access to the Sample database, and you are running the Siebel Mobile Web Client, you can familiarize yourself with the Siebel application through the demo version. The demo application automatically logs you in and connects you to the Sample database. You are free to add and delete information in the Sample database while becoming familiar with the application.

About the Home Page

After you log in to your Siebel application, your home page appears. Your home page shows items that will be most useful to you while you are using the application. For example, your home page can show service requests if you are a call center agent, opportunities if you are a salesperson, or a list of your daily activities. You might also want to see your daily calendar so you can manage your daily appointments.

The records that appear in the My lists on the home page are determined by default criteria that are set by your Siebel administrator. For more information about how the records in these lists are filtered, contact your Siebel administrator.

The information on your home page is determined by your organization. However, you can remove and rearrange its elements to better manage the information and determine what you see.
