BusinessObjects - Control and Maintenance.

With the increasing use of BusinessObjects reporting, SAP users are looking for the control and information that is common in SAP applications, but lacking in BusinessObjects current tools. Common issues arise when BusinessObjects is heavily used, as proliferation of reports and Document Instances can hinder performance and make change control very difficult. For example:

  • As Report proliferation grows, no BusinessObjects tools exist to identify what reports can be removed and which need to remain. For example, ad hoc reporting may result in multiple duplicate reports
  • As a Universe is modified, no BusinessObjects tools exist to identify the impact it will have on existing reports
  • Document Instances are created and stored in the BusinessObjects system every time a report is scheduled to run by an end user. For example, 1000 BusinessObjects users may be creating millions of Document Instances yearly on the BusinessObjects server directly impacting system performance.
    • In addition, managing and maintaining this many instances is manually intensive and costly.
    • From a management perspective, no robust BusinessObjects tools exist to determine which instances have 1) failed, 2) have failed per report or 3) are currently running.
    • Standard tools currently do not even allow export of information to .xls
In addition, many companies Migrating BusinessObjects cannot afford the downtime and delay and manual effort required to migrate to newer version of BusinessObjects. Namely:
  • The standard import wizard toolsets requires several days to weeks of downtime at a high cost to the business.
  • Moreover, any new report created during the migration itself is not migrated and needs to be manually recreated in the newer release.
Only TekLink has tools and services to manage your BusinessObjects environment effectively.
