Siebel License Keys

About License Keys

 The Siebel license key is generated so that your
organization's users can access the Siebel products
that your organization has purchased.
 The license key is a series of numbers (up to 54
digits).
 You must enter this license key before you begin to
use the Siebel product, products, or optional
modules that your organization has purchased.
 Because the license key resides in the database and
not on the client machine, everyone who accesses
the Siebel database uses the same license key.
About License Keys Contd……..
 Your license key activates the screens and views
associated with the applications and modules that
your organization has purchased.
 If you have been assigned multiple license keys,
their effect is cumulative, as you enter them.
