Thread: Max and Replace help please???

It looks like you have some compatability with Crystal:- http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/Crystal+Reports+for+Eclipse+Release+Notes Unsure about BOXI, you would have to check with your SAP rep.

Right ... push for BO, we could all use the work, it's a better tool and more accessible to the wider user community. You say that it's for the finance and information departments but it'll grow and it's a much more scalable solution.

Database delegated , a.k.a. smart measures are a halfway step to GLOBAL variables (see 2-phase calculation). Wish we had GLOBAL variables (defined at the universe level, but calculated at the report level).

Rob/Paul, I think it's more of a concern that the support guys are under such pressure if they are genuinely guiding survey replies. As a sidenote, it may not be acknowledged by SAP/BO but the better service desk staff will quickly accelerate through to education and/or consultancy roles and that maintaining talent on the service desk is going to be difficult. In that respect, it's no different to any other IT department/organisation.

Peter, I think you should check that - the last time I tried doing it it created the BIAR but with nothing in it.

You can find some information in the latest Gartner's quadrant http://mediaproducts.gartner.com/reprints/sas/vol5/article8/article8.html Personally, I don't have access to SAP parter portal anymore, but I strongly believe that there is a PDF file which compares Ms versus BOE... Maybe some SAP partner can help you out with this....

Please let us know which reporting tool you're using. We'll move it to the right place. Thanks.

Exactly - matching toolsets without understanding their intended use and the consumers is a tad too generic to make sense.
