Showing Presentations Using the PCD Viewer

You use the PCD Viewer in Siebel Life Sciences applications to deliver personalized content to customers, to present information about products to customers, and to obtain feedback from customers about product presentations and personalized content delivered. You start the viewer by selecting the Detail button. The following procedure shows you how to deliver personalized content and presentations to customers.

The PCD Viewer is available in Siebel Life Sciences applications for Contacts, Accounts, Call Activities (from the Account Call and Contact Call subviews), and Messaging Plans.

To show presentations using the PCD Viewer

1. Navigate to one of the following screens or views in Siebel CRM:
   • Contacts screen
   • Accounts screen
   • Call Activities screen, then the Account Call view
   • Call Activities screen, then the Contact Call view
   • Messaging Plans screen
2. Click the Detail button.

   The Message page that opens contains the following information:

   • A list of all messaging plans (presentations), which are released and unexpired, appears at the top of the page.
   • The messaging plan items (presentation items or slides), which are associated with the selected messaging plan, appear next in thumbnail format.

     Click the green Related label below a messaging plan item to show the related messages for that item (if there are any).

3. Select the messaging plan that you want to show and then click Launch to start the presentation session.

   The messaging plan opens in the PCD Viewer.

   If Enable Direct Launch is set for messaging plans in Siebel CRM, then you can also tap any messaging plan item followed by Launch to start the presentation. In this case, the messaging plan item opens in full-screen mode in the PCD Viewer. To see any preceding items in the presentation, navigate back to them as needed.

   2. Click anywhere at the top of the screen to activate the header navigation bar, which has the following options:

        Note that a contact call is created after you suspend response logging or submit the responses logged for a contact that joins the presentation during the presentation session. At least one contact is necessary to submit the presentation feedback. For more information, see Recording Responses to Presentations.
