BOE310 - BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0: Administration and Security (formerly SA210V3)

Course Description

This two-day instructor-led course explains how to perform the tasks in the Central Management Console (CMC). These tasks involve supporting BusinessObjects Enterprise users and groups so they can access corporate data through the web portal in BusinessObjects Enterprise. This corporate data can take the form of Crystal Reports, BusinessObjects Web Intelligence, or Desktop Intelligence documents, Voyager workspaces, program objects, object packages, and popular third-party objects, such as Microsoft Word and Excel files, among others. Please note: this course does not discuss maintaining BusinessObjects Enterprise servers, which is taught in the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0: Administering Servers — Windows course.

The business benefit of this course is that it provides a foundation for system architects/administrators to effectively manage both users and content on the BusinessObjects Enterprise platform.

Note: This course was developed based on the product availability of Java only. A course addendum and future revision will reflect any changes in functionality or new features introduced in .NET.

BusinessObjects Edge Series XI 3.0

Note: This course also applies to you if you are a system administrator for BusinessObjects Edge Series. Any product differences between BusinessObjects Edge and BusinessObjects Enterprise are outlined within the course so you understand which areas do not apply to your deployment. A document with more information about these differences and how this course applies to you is included on the resource CD.
