Modifying a Symbolic String to Globally Update Display Values

You can configure Siebel CRM to make global modifications to the values it shows in the Siebel client. For example, this feature can be useful in the following situations:

  • You want to modify all instances of the word Account that Siebel CRM shows in the Siebel client to Customer.

  • You want to deploy Siebel CRM specific to an industry in a locale other than English. The text strings that it shows in the Siebel client might not be appropriate for this industry.
