    Hi Srinivasan

    with offline distribution, you can enable user with no connection to BPC to use BPC Reports and Inputschedules.

    This is very usefull if, for example, you have users that need to key in data but you dont want them to have access to the BPC System. In this case you can generate Inputschedules for different Entities, send them to the users and upload the files with the new figures nearly automatically (see Offline Distribution Wizard).

    "Online" means that the user has to log on to the System by Citrix/TerminalServer or local client and has to be defined in the BPC security.

    Regards

    Hi,

    As the name suggests, in the offline distribution, the reports that are distributed are offline. This means, the reports can be viewed, even if you are not connected to the system.

    Hope this helps.
