BO Client application

Former Member

I have a customer who wants to report on a non-SAP application via a universe supplied by the application provider with Business Objects. They only have half a dozen users and want to distriute reports in PDF format. The currently Business Objects 5.1.7 which is installed locally on each workstation. Is there a current SAP BO product which will provide these functions?

From the reading I've done I could use enterprise or edge but this would be a client/server setup and the client wants the product localy installed on the relevent users workstations.

I thought I could use Interactive Analysis desktop edition (WebI Personal) but it appears that you still have to load the universes from a CMS so wouldnt a client only solution.

Can anyone make clarify this for me or suggest what I should be using?

Regards

Yes. Interactive Analysis (WebIntelligence) Desktop and CrystalReports to some extent.

The customer could still use Interactive Analysis (WebIntelligence) Desktop and universes locally, but this will be in offline mode. They may also use CrystalReports installed on individual machines however IA Deskotp would be closer to the report functionlity than CR.

hope this helps.
