Setting the Server Edit Record Time Stamp Parameter

When you set the ServerEditRecordTimeStamp parameter, you enter the time when Siebel starts using this configuration. Enter the time using the following format:

MM/DD/YYYY

You can specify only the month, day, and year. You cannot specify minutes and seconds.

For example, to start using the configuration on October 9, 2020, then enter the following value:

10/09/2020

Doing this:

• Allows you to modify any object that includes a timestamp that occurs after October 9, 2020.

• Does not allow you to modify any object that includes a timestamp that occurs before October 9, 2020. Developers can view or copy these objects, but not modify them.

• Allows you to create new records, and then to modify these new records.

• Allows you to copy any record, regardless of the timestamp.

   2. Click Help, and then click About Record.
