Hi,

the simple answer is :

- BEx Queries for WebI, Crystal, Dashboards

- Bex Queries, Cubes, and Query Views for Analysis tools.

Hi,

BEx workbooks, they really shouldn't be using those tools. Instead some users should probably be looking at ad‑hoc query with web intelligence or Xcelsisus dashboards. Again, I think only about 20 to 25 percent of a typical BI user base should be using the Analysis OLAP tool.

So take your BEx workbooks, convert those over into the Microsoft edition, and for most of these it should be a straightforward conversion unless you have custom coding embedded. At the same time that you're converting over, take a look at some of the users who are now working within the complexity of an OLAP tool, and see if you can't migrate them over to some of the other simpler tools as well.
