LINKAGE SIEBEL WITH ANALYTICS: Action Links

The purpose of this article is to indicate a way to provide a link for end users to navigate from their analytic dashboards to a record in the Siebel operational application. As an operational example, consider the Opportunities report in Fig.1. The requirement is to navigate from this report to a specific Siebel Opportunities view. We want to include a new column in the report (see the red rectangle in Figure 1) with a button allowing to navigate directly to the specific Opportunity view in Siebel (Figure 2). The tool that enables the navigation is called Action Links.
