    Hi Neel,

    are you in release => 3.5 ? because in previous release you do not have IB.

    Ciao.

      hi Neel,

      you can try help.sap.com 'glossary' 😊

      bex analyzer

      http://help.sap.com/saphelp_glossary/en/a7/af36f58bb4c94b98577cfd9ab09841/content.htm

      Analytical, reporting, and design tool in the Business Explorer that is embedded in Microsoft Excel. In the BEx Analyzer, you can analyze and plan with selected InfoProvider data by navigating within queries created in the BEx Query Designer. You can also design the interface for your queries by embedding design items (controls) into your Excel workbook, thus turning the workbook into a query application.

      bex query designer

      http://help.sap.com/saphelp_glossary/en/47/58827e6835d511bcbf0800060d9c68/content.htm

      Tool for defining queries that are based on a selection of characteristics and key figures (InfoObjects) or on reusable InfoProvider structures. In the BEx Query Designer, you can parameterize queries by defining variables for characteristic values, hierarchies, hierarchy nodes, texts or formulas. You can specify the selection of InfoObjects more precisely by:

      Restricting characteristics and key figures by characteristic values, characteristic value intervals and hierarchy nodes

      Defining calculated and restricted key figures for reuse

      Defining structures for reuse

      Defining exceptions

      Defining conditions

      Defining exception cells

      You can use all queries that you define in the BEx Query Designer for OLAP reporting, and also for flat reporting.

      hope this helps.
