Siebel Quick-GUI “Mock-up” Designer

With Siebel it’s always been difficult to create a custom GUI for demo purposes. The process usually involved having to add a Business Object and Business Components, then having to build UI elements on top of that. While that’s fine for configurators, it was never good for knocking up quick demo’s in brainstorming sessions.

This tool changed that. Basically it mimicked the Siebel GUI allowing to ‘fetch’ a customized application from the Siebel repository. Functional leads and sales-people could then very simply and quickly add views and applets, often in live client-sessions showing the client what the end-product looks like.

Once the design was decided, the tool can be used to assist creating the Siebel Business Components, Views, and Applets to recreate the mockup in the final product.
