Yes, one main difference is that direct access for SAP BEx queries via BICS enables the dimensional discovery of metadata. That is, dimension hierarchies from the cube are maintained, while multi-source enabled relational universes do not. Multi-source enabled relational universes, however, are generated and persisted on the SAP BusinessObjects repository for SAP Netweaver BW 7.0.1 Infoproviders. Direct access to SAP BEx generates an equivalent, temporary, universe-structure automatically on the fly, but they are not persisted and therefore cannot be shared or reused. Note that multi-source enabled relational universes need to be synchronized with any Infoprovider changes.
