Business Objects XI 3.0: Getting Acquainted

Business Objects XI (BOXI) is an enterprise information management, query, reporting and analysis tool. Release 3.0 on the XI platform comes with new out-of-the-box features and enhancements that improve the capabilities of previous releases. Key new features include the ability to track changes between report refreshes, Web Intelligence support for stored procedures in universes, migration enhancements when porting reports from Desktop Intelligence to Web Intelligence, and new BI Widgets that provide personalized information on users’ desktops.

User demands for a more robust Web Intelligence tool have also been addressed with a new rich client. The Web Intelligence Rich Client now allows users to develop and format reports, drill down and slice and dice information online and off. It bridges the functionality gap between Desktop Intelligence and Web Intelligence while improving overall performance. In addition, 3.0 offers a much improved Central Management Console (CMC) for administration. BOXI administrators can more easily navigate through CMC’s menu structure with its enhanced interface, and perform more streamlined tasks through new modal dialog windows. Get better acquainted with Business Objects XI 3.0 with this presentation to the DC Area Business Objects / Crystal User Group (’08).
