Does 3.0 have any version control for Webi/Universe? Or do we have any software for version control of it? If we do is there a document on it?

As Amr mentioned above, BO LCM (LifeCycle Manager XI 3.1) may be your best bet. LCM (currently requires a beta invitation [beta.businessobjects.com]) does include version control.

LCM will eventually be incorporated into BO XI 3.0.

Do we have anything I can give to an external client? On it's capabilities

All the documentation falls under a rather specific NDA. I suggest you sign up for the beta. It's painless, I had my approval in a few hours.

Very briefly, LCM (amongst other features) also provides version control version control and rollback functionallity via Subversion and it works as advertised.

Can I give the documents out to an external person who is a potential client?

I expect the client would have to sign an NDA too.

Below is the relevant section of the NDA (posted verbatim):

You must maintain the Pre-Release Product and corresponding materials and information as confidential information of Business Objects. You must use the same security measures to protect the Pre-Release Product as you use to protect your own confidential information. You must not disclose such information to anyone other than your employees (and Business Objects approved contractors under nondisclosure obligations) who have a need to know. The foregoing confidentiality obligations do not apply to any information generally available to the public, independently developed or obtained without reliance on Business Objectsu2019 information or approved for release by Business Objects.

You could also email BO at BOBJProductRollout at businessobjects.com and check for sure.

Thanks.

The use of an internal folder or naming conventions may be usable as a workaround for you.
