About Implementing Authorization and Access Control

This topic describes the mechanisms that you can use to restrict access to data and Siebel CRM functionality for authenticated users after they have accessed Siebel Business Applications.

Siebel CRM uses two primary access-control mechanisms to determine the privileges or resources that a user is entitled to within Siebel Business Applications:

• View-level access control. Manages the functions that a user can access.

• Record-level access control. Manages the data items that are visible to each user.
