Relationship Between Web Intelligence Reports and BusinessObjects

[#1]

I'm fairly new to BO and web intelligence, so this may be a very naive question.

What is the relationship between BOXI and WEBI? I have the idea that the queries designed in WEBI lead an independent existence in BOXI, but I can't find any documentation that answers this one way or another.

Can anyone give me an authorative answer, or point me to some documentation that might explain the architecture better? Thanks.

the concept of the business intelligence system that its giving the user ability to create their reports by their own on differenct datasources, and how they can do that and they dont know even to write SQL statments or formula

hence the SQL is known only by the IT ppl of developers.

so here in this point, users use WebIntelligence to create reports based on some semantic layer "Universe"

the IT ppl create the universes since they are more ralted with programming and database design and development.

they export those universes to the "BO" repository.

and arrange the access rights for it.

and from here the users can access this universes from the WebIntelligence to create reports based on their needs without even to know wats SQL.

you can have some documents from business objects support from

http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/product_guides/default.asp

select the product version you want.

good luck
