To set responsibilities in the Siebel application

1. Define seven new responsibilities in the Siebel application.

   Navigate to the Administration - Application screen, then the Responsibilities view to add the following seven new responsibilities:

   • XMLP_ADMIN: Assign this responsibility to an Oracle Publisher Server administrator with no access limitations.

   • XMLP_DEVELOPER: Assign this responsibility to allow for uploading reports from the Oracle Publisher Server to the Siebel application.

   • XMLP_SCHEDULER: Assign this responsibility to allow for scheduling of reports.

   • XMLP_SIEBEL_GUEST: Assign this responsibility to limit access to reports. This responsibility only allows for generation, viewing, and deletion of user’s own reports.

   • XMLP_ADMIN_USER: Assign this responsibilty to an administrative user.

   • XMLP_DEVELOPER_USER: Assign this responsibilty to a development user.

   • XMLP_SCHEDULER_USER: Assign this responsibilty to a user who uses scheduled reports.

2. Associate the XMLP_ADMIN and XMLP_ADMIN_USER responsibility with the following views:

   • All Report Output List View

   • All Report Template Across Organization View

   • All Report Template View

   • Manager's Report Output List View

   • Manager's Report Template View

   • Report Job List View

   • Report Output List View

   • Report Standard Template Registration Admin View

   • Report Template Registration Admin View

3. Associate the XMLP_SCHEDULER and XMLP_SCHEDULER_USER responsibility with the Report Job List View view.

   This association allows users to view their scheduled reports in the My Jobs view in the Siebel application, which is an embedded user interface to Oracle Publisher.
