About the Sample Database

Siebel Business Applications include a sample database to use in demonstrating, evaluating, or experimenting with the Siebel client and Siebel Tools. For more information, see Siebel Installation Guide.

The sample database includes numerous demo user accounts. (SADMIN is one of these accounts.) Each of these accounts has a predefined responsibility that reflects the demo user’s position within the sample organization. If you log in to the sample database as a demo user, then your demo user’s responsibility determines that views that you can access within Siebel Business Applications.

You do not have to install server components to run the Siebel sample database. However, you cannot access the Administration - Server Management screen if the server component is not running. You cannot copy the sample database to the server data sources.

To log on as a demo user, double-click the icon for the listed Siebel application in the Siebel client program group. The Demo Siebel application automatically logs the indicated user into the sample database. For the other Siebel Business Applications, enter the user ID and password in the logon dialog box, and select Connect to: Sample.

The sample database that ships with the Siebel application has a built-in license key that includes access to all views and modules for a period of a year from the initial ship date of the product.
