Lifecycle Manager
Business Objects Enterprise XI Release 3.1 includes a tool to automate the movement between development, test, and pre-production and production environments. This tool is known as the Import Wizard. The tool supports the movement of all report types, content and dependencies such as folders, categories, security and universes etc., through the different phases of the deployment lifecycle, helping to reduce system management and implementation costs.
Threaded Discussions
Threaded Discussions provide threaded comment notes that enable users to collaborate and create and maintain comments on reports. Threaded Discussions are a fully integrated feature of the environment and are displayed at the bottom of the InfoView portal. The system manages all threaded discussion information and stores it in the repository. Discussion threads can be added to Web Intelligence and Crystal Reports documents, as well as third-party managed documents like Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF.
