BusinessObjects Dashboard Builder Features

Display Multiple Content Types
On a single dashboard page, multiple objects can be displayed—from business analytics and Crystal Reports to Web Intelligence documents and Xcelsius files.

Drill Down Into a Report
By drilling from summary-level to detail, users can maintain the context of the analysis. A guided workflow allows you to explore your operational information without getting lost in the data, or having to use another tool.

Drag and Drop Design Interface
You do not need to be a technical wizard to build a dashboard. The AJAX interface allows you to design dashboards with a floating toolbox and by dragging and dropping objects onto the page.

Pre-built Analytics
Pre-built selectors, gauges, charts, maps, and buttons are included—allowing users to create dashboards dynamically from a visual and simple interface.

Leverage the BI Platform Security
You do not need to maintain a separate security model for your dashboards as Dashboard Builder can be incorporated into your platform security model.

Web-based Content Creation
The tool used to create the dashboards is a zero client application that is accessed through a web browser. No software needs to be installed on the designer's desktop machine thus making it easier for IT to maintain.

Create Multiple Pages
With a single click, the designer can create an additional tab view within a dashboard—similar to the way you can create an additional worksheet in Excel. A tabbed layout makes it easier to organize your content allow users to navigate around information quickly.
