Deactivating Unused Screens

This topic describes how to deactivate predefined screens that Siebel CRM does not use in your implementation.

Note: Responsibilities, Views, and their relationship can be Workspace enabled in your Development environment. If you have Workspace enabled Responsibilities, the changes below must be done in an editable Workspace while in your Development environment. If you are editing Responsibilities, Views, and their relationship in your Runtime Repository environment, there is no need for an editable Workspace.

To deactivate unused screens

  • Use one of the following configurations:

    • Log in to the Siebel client, and then use the Responsibility Administration Screen to disassociate all views of the unused screen from the responsibilities that your organization uses. This configuration does not require you to deploy changes to the Siebel runtime repository. It provides an easy upgrade path if you decide to use the screen or views later. At that time, no configuration or software upgrade is required. You only need to reassign the views to the relevant responsibility.

    • Use Siebel Tools or Web Tools to deactivate the screen. This configuration requires you to deploy changes to the Siebel runtime repository. When you compile, Siebel CRM does not include the inactive screen in the Siebel runtime repository.
