Creating a View That Requires an Explicit User Login

The user can log in to a Siebel Web Engine application in the following ways:

  • Explicitly entering the username and password in the login dialog box.

  • With a cookie after the user logs in and if this user chooses Save My Username and Password.

To display a view that provides access to a sensitive part of the web site, you can require the user who logs in with a cookie to explicitly supply the user name and password.

To create a view that requires an explicit user login

Note: Views can be Workspace enabled in your Development environment. If you have Workspace enabled Views, the steps below must be done in an editable Workspace while in your Development environment.

  1. In Siebel Tools, click View in the Object Explorer.

  2. In the Views list, locate the view you must modify.

  3. Set the Explicit Login property to TRUE.

    If a user logs in with a cookie, and if this user attempts to access this view, then Siebel CRM prompts the user to enter the user name and password. Siebel CRM requires this user to perform this login only one time for each session. All subsequent visits that the user makes to this view during the session do not require the explicit login.
