Siebel – Admin Mode Flag
In my last project,we had a requirement of Admin Views, so the admin users if required can change the data from frontend and not going to backend and running update queries.
Admin Views are those views in which all the records are visible to the person who has access to this view irrespective of the position of the person.

Siebel – Upgrade Roadmap – Part II
This is a continuation of my previous post, Siebel – Upgrade Roadmap – Part I.
As a part of the planning phase, feel free to:
1) Analyze the Complexity of the Upgrade
2) Be a good estimator of the level of effort needed to upgrade. Don’t mind putting in a few extra days in the plan than to crib later.

Siebel : Security Vulnerability !
This post could have far-reaching implications. I am still at crossroads whether I should be covering this or not..
The baseline is that there has been a Security Vulnerability detected, and announced. It is said to have been detected nearly a year ago, and informed to the Parent Organization. However, despite a year passing by, we are not aware of any remedial action having been taken by the Corporation. Since the vulnerability has already been publicly announced over the internet, we feel it’s safe to cover it here as well. We feel morally responsible to apprise Oracle Corp of the issue by building sufficient public opinion to patch it..
