What is the diff b/w BO webi reports, crystal reports and
xcelsius ?
Thanks...
Answer Posted / anjanikumar c,a,
The Datasource for Xcelsius is not limited to excel, it can
fetch data through some data connectivity components like
Web service, Live Office connection, SAP connection, many
more......
The main difference between teh Webi, CR and Xcelsius is
Webi and CR are reporting tools and Xcelsius is a Dynamic
Dashboard tool where we can provide a What-If scenario to
the end-user.
The output of the reports in Webi and CR are limited to
pdf, word etc.. but Xcelsius gives output as all the above
mentioned formats and a unique format .swf (a flash file).
In Webi and CR we can find the page refresh rate where as
in Xcelsius we have buffered data. The advantage with this
is unecessary hits to the server may be reduced.
Both Webi and CR cant competate Xcelsius in Look and Feel.
Xcelsius has some rich features and some color blends.
Webi and CR can hold huge data, but Xcelsius cannot hold
bulk data. At runtime it shows the performance degrade and
sometimes throws action script errors.
There will be no ground work in Webi and CR in making data
for charts but where as in Xcelsius we have to do lots and
lots of ground work in the Excel sheet.
The main point:
Through Xcelsius we can import data fro0m Webi and CR
through Live Office connector.

I have 2 doubts regarding the "Input Control" functionality in BI4: 1) Can the Input Controls in BI4 be manipulated? I mean, can we change the IC display as BOLD or change the values from Italics to regular? Or change the colors? 2) How to get hierarchy type control in IC? Let's say my first IC is for Country and second is for State. If I select a particulat country from Ist IC,second one should show me states belonging to selected country. Is that possible?
