Themes

The Siebel Web client by default uses the Aurora theme as the user interface theme. Depending on the deployment of your Web application, other themes, such as the Synergy or Simplified User Interface (SUI) theme might be available. All themes generally have the same capabilities and you can modify the end user experience to match other applications at a site.

To set themes 

1. From the application-level menu, choose Tools, then User Preferences.

   The User Preferences screen appears.

2. Navigate to the Behavior view.

   The Behavior form appears.

3. Select the appropriate value from the drop-down list for the Theme field.

   You must log out and then back in to the application for the changes to take effect.

   
   

   Note: The values available in the drop-down list depend on the value selected in the Navigation Control field.

   
   

About the Simplified User Interface

The Simplified User Interface is available as an alternative theme for the Siebel Web client. Although the Simplified UI is not the default theme, you can configure the Siebel Web client to use this theme.

The main elements of a home page using the Simplified UI theme are as follows:

• The home page contains familiar elements, such as, My Quotes and the menu toolbar.

• The home page contains a series of Springboard icons (such as, Home, Accounts, Contacts, Calendar, Opportunities, and so on) that you can click or tap to access a particular screen.

After you choose a screen, you can access available views using the floating side drawer on the side of the screen.

Springboard icons appear within a horizontal scroll list before the selected screen, and the buttons in the application toolbar appear when you click the icon next to the Oracle logo.
