Very new to Business Objects, but I have a .NET background and PL/SQL background. I've been able to make the most basic reports, but I wanted to know if there were any good books or resources online that explain in detail how to design reports the way I'd like to such as grouping with sections, having two sections and segmenting only one of them, advanced functions like that.
Any suggestions or fingers toward the right places would be appreciated. Thanks.
Greetings! I assume you have BO XI (r2 or r3) installed. Since you want to use Infoview i'll also assume you have a sample universe created, possibly star-schema like.
When you start Infoview new report (or Desktop Intelligence) there is an option to pick from one of the templates and from there you can immediatly change the layour of your report from simple-tabulate stype report to something more interesting, like cross-table.
