Business Objects, as we point out in our ebook "Jack's Guide to Lots More Money", is one of those "must have" bits of knowledge that opens doors to higher income possibilities for you. The surprising thing is - it's not very complicated and you can soon become very knowledgeable.

Business Objects is one of the better known and most widely used of the various Business Intelligence products in the marketplace. Its purchase by software giant SAP in early 2008 will probably increase its spread further. The number of IT jobs which require some level of knowledge of Business Objects is growing rapidly - and they pay very well.

See yourself with three times your present income. How good does that feel? Listen to your friends and family marvelling at your change in fortune. See the things you have always wanted that are now within your reach.

This book gives you the grand tour of the latest version of Business Objects – Version XI. The book is ideal for those who want a general but comprehensive knowledge of why Business Objects is so important, what it can do and how to use it.

It is not aimed at Business Objects developers, who will require somewhat more technical detail than this book contains, but is still an ideal introduction. Its real audience is people who have to understand, use or deploy Business Objects, including those end users who want to write or modify their own reports.

The ebook covers topics such as:

• What is Business Objects and why is it so important?
• A history of the product
• Why is the latest version XI so important and different?
• What is a Universe and why is it important?
• Universe design and construction
• What level of skills do I need to use it?
• End user facilities for casual users
• End user facilities for end users who write or change reports
• Security
• Performance considerations
• The various report design tools in the Business Objects family
• Migration from older versions

The book assumes a basic knowledge of the principles of SQL, Relational Databases, Data Warehouses and Business Intelligence (BI). If you don’t have this knowledge, or would like a refresher, our companion book “Jack’s Guide to Data Warehouses” offers an excellent primer.

So – enjoy your tour of the Business Objects universe.
