  1. Hi Srinivas,
    The dbf file is exceptionally large, it is about 2.5GB. It is still continuing.
    I think we have to put position other than Siebel Administrator.

  2. Yeah. You need to set the position as Developer not Siebel Administrator. But, set the responsibility as Siebel Administrator to get all the views.
