An account is any external organization with which your company does business. It negotiates agreements, receives service and bills, and raises trouble tickets. An account is usually the central entity of a Siebel CRM implementation. After adding accounts in Siebel Communications, end users at your company contribute information for tracking customer service, processing requests, viewing agreements, and so on.
