Yes, Profile Attributes! As the ever attentive, up-to-date Siebel CRM expert that you are when you read this, you know that in Siebel Open UI (since version 15), it is no longer allowed/supported to  set  Profile Attributes from browser-side script. But  getting  them is not a problem, since the  GetProfileAttr  function works perfectly fine. Recently I found a few vanilla Profile Attributes that came quite handy in my work in Open UI JavaScript: Navigation Type : stores the navigation type such as "NAVIGATION_TAB" ActiveViewName : does what it says on the tin IsOpenUI : returns "1" when the application runs in Open UI Is SUI Theme : when "TRUE", the application theme is Synergy (aka SUI) Position:  returns the currently active position Primary Responsibility Name : guess what this one is… Profile Image : returns the URL of the user's profile image Org.Name : returns the name of the user's organization Here's a sample line of

Siebel Composer – Another Use Case Using Siebel Web Tools (developer preview of the Siebel CRM Composer, to give it the full and correct name) there are a number of interesting use cases that we are encouraged to investigate. Today we will look at the possibility of entering Expressions, using the traditional Siebel syntax, to drive the display of the Siebel end-user application. To be more precise, in this case we will add an Expression to an Applet in a View, and will only display the Applet to end-users who are looking at Siebel on a device whose browser viewport is bigger than 1024 pixels in width. Siebel View Web Template Item Expressions So what the heck is a viewport and why do I care? Well, it is an element in the magic of Responsive Web Design. Websites need to be able to adjust the page you see based on the size of your browser. Many of you will have come across media queries in CSS files that leverage such things to propose a different layout to users of smaller

As most of you aware, IP 2014 is  now available  on  eDelivery ! I was very eager to see the responsive web design part of it! So went ahead and downloaded and setup my sample. The first look – impressive layout. Though, in my case, it is opening only on firefox and IE11 (haven’t tried other IE versions). In Chrome it keeps spinning. You need to set EnableFQDN               = FALSE in your cfg for it to work! Important Update :(From Alex on siebel-essentials)  Please be aware that Patchset 1 for Innovation Pack 2014 will be mandatory for production use.

Siebel CRM Composer Maybe the most appealing item on the IP15 Road map might be the “Siebel CRM Composer”, which at Oracle Open Week 2014 got presented as “Run-time Configuration, No More SRF”. The “Siebel CRM Composer” has been labeled as “Developer Preview”, so not for production use. So S
