Snoozing and Dismissing Alarms

When an alarm appears on your screen, you can dismiss it or postpone it. When you postpone it, you can specify how long the alarm will snooze for. An example of an alarm is shown in Figure 12-4. You can set one default alarm snooze time for all of the activities you create. This can be done in the User Preferences screen. See "Setting Up Default Alarm Snooze Times".

Figure 12-4 Siebel Reminder Dialog Box (Alarm)

To snooze an alarm when it pops up

1. In the Siebel Reminder dialog box, from the Snooze For drop-down list, choose the length of time for which you want to snooze the alarm.

2. Click Snooze to defer the alarm.

   The alarm reappears after the amount of time you specified has passed.

You can dismiss an alarm in the Siebel Reminder dialog box.

To dismiss an alarm

• In the Siebel Reminder dialog box, click Dismiss to close the alarm.

  The alarm will not appear again for this activity.

  
  

  Note: If multiple alarms appear before you have a chance to either snooze or dismiss them, they are all queued behind the same alarm popup. You can click the Previous and Next buttons to move to each one. You can also click Dismiss All to dismiss every alarm that is currently active, or you can click Snooze All to defer every alarm that is currently active.
